Great fonts there

(but aiya the first really correct elvish font is the one before the last on the third page, most of the rune fonts are also excellent)

Nope not that one
It looks nice but its yet only latin letters, changed to look like Tolkien-ones

O sorry, I mean "inscription on the ring" (where is my mind? 🙄 ) but I thought that was the real one used in the movie...

It uses the same signs mostly but in a different way

And as its latinized you can easily read it without any idea of tengwar

wow! exa, i think you know everything..bout lotr anyways 🙂 I wanna download em, but i gotta wait till i get home, cuz i am at teh library right now 🙂

The best Tengwar fonts there are
RS Moroma
Tengwar 3+4+5
Tengwar Cursive
Tengwar Gandalf (though the "L" is the wrong way round, but it looks cool)
Tengwar Noldor
Tengwar Quenya
and Tengwar Sindarin
(nearly all of them on the fourth page)
So these are the one that make correct "elvish" letters and you are able to write great stuff with them, but theyre quite difficult to use, at least most of them - only "Tengwar Gandalf", I think, is quite easy. And looks good.

Tirion Sarati is also great but no Tengwar elvish.

Thabk you for the Fonts!!

citadel Why you look so sexy

hey i know this sounds like a stupid question, but, how do you make the fonts usable in writing and stuff? i downloaded the ones i wanted and put them in a the 'my documents' folder, but now i dont know how to get them to the font folder. i tried pasting them there which didnt work. i also tried going to the 'fonts' folder in the control panel, but it wouldnt let me install them! idk if its just my computer or what, but if you have info on this tell me! btw, the fonts are awesome! 😱

Just unzip the archives and copy the *.ttf files to the fonts folder. The paths are

Win98 C: \windows\fonts

Windows 2000 and XP C: \winnt\fonts

in most of the cases. Or use the control panel. 😉

Exa, I still didn't forget it up to now, but...is one of those fonts the Easterling or Haradrim runes? 😄

I don't want to be a complete pain in the "you know where" but I'm really ignorant about this. 🙁 Could you please help me further? 😄

Where exactly is the fonts folder? What does it look like?

And what are the *.ttf files?

I'm so sorry, I'm just desperate. 🙁

Thanks! 😄
