Many people ask this question, but installing a font on a Mac is quite simple and takes only a few steps.

And so, when you buy a font, you will have OTF or TTF files. I will not go into technical details and format differences, just OTF is a newer format and it is preferable for installation. There is also a WOFF format, but it is needed for embedding in web pages.

And so three simple steps to install:

1. Open the font folder in OTF format

2. Double click on the file. A window will appear with the option to install the font.

3. Click install font

Done! 🥳

In a new window, you will have the installed font for the current user. Now the font can be used in the graphics programs Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity and others.
