    Is there any way I can delete a font I downloaded for Photoshop (CS3)? I downloaded this font and all of a sudden, none of my fonts work.

    open your documents, go to where you saved it, and right click then hit delete perhaps?

    I already deleted the file. I want to know if I can remove it from photoshop, my fault, should have been more clear on that.

    As others have said, go to Start->Control Panel. Enter "Classic View" if that is not your default view option. Double click the "Fonts" folder. CAREFULLY delete the font that you installed; make sure that you only delete that specific font, and don't modify any other contents of the folder. When you are done, restart Photoshop.

    As a comment, though, I have to say that installing a font should not cause any errors in Photoshop. Chances are that when you installed it, certain elements did not install properly, or you are experiencing difficulties related to obtaining Photoshop by unconventional means.

    I deleted it from my control panel, and it's still not working. I think it's some sort of glitch. I've had it for a little while, and certainly did not pirate it.

    EDIT: For some odd reason it only won't work on a .PSD file or new image. So, I guess the problem's pretty much solved. I just have to save the images in different files now.

    I would definitely uninstall and reinstall Photoshop then, because that seems like it will really get in the way... Is this error in PS only? Can you use the new fonts in Microsoft Word?

    Not sure, I have the 60 day trial for office which expired, so I still need to purchase that.

    EDIT: Might as well request lock/delete.
