Adding Fonts to SOLIDWORKS

Hi everyone, I'd like to add fonts to SolidWorks
in order to avoid a complete recess of the lettering of the R, D, O, B etc ... I'd like to add an armed stencil typeface.
But I  can't find the sources folder or add fonts found on the net and are they compatible?

Hello

Normally, SolidWorks uses Windows fonts. Just uncheck the "use document font" box

That's what font to add to the fonts folder (under windows 7)

C:\Windows\Fonts

And there are already fonts of this kind in Windows/SW, see these 2 topics:

Hello 

Yes, it is possible; After downloading it, just store it in C==>Windows==>fonts. Solidwoks also recovers them in this file...
