Such a fun font but when I download it, there are no fonts. No matter where I get this font from, its blank. I tried downloading other fonts, and they work just fine.

Did you unzip it into your fonts folders? If it is a bad file, try here. http://www.dafont.com/flores.font

Thanks anyway.

Have you tried going to your fonts folder and opening the font from there?

One time this happened to me! I had inkscape open and then went looking for the font on the net. Couldn't get it to show up in my Inkscape. So I closed Inkscape and reopened it. Must have had something to do with my Inkscape was open when I loaded the font and wanted to be closed and reopened. I just downloaded the fond and comes up fine and makes a cute svg.

I don't have ink scape. It weird how this font won't show up but others do. I was thinking that if you used tiny brads as the flower centers that would really make the words more flower like. At least some of you can have fun with this font.

Since you have looked in your desktop fonts folder and it's there, hum should show, but here it is in Scal. Now saying that I can say this, hum ;) Some fonts are just not as equal as others. not made very well. I have been doing graphics since the early 90's and installing fonts wasn't as easy as it is now. This is what I use to do. at the font site you find you font and "open" it. Not "save" it. When it opens find the ttf and double click on it. It will look like th attachment of the font, go to right upper corner and click properties, then go to the right lower corner and choose "unlock". You can then close this page. Leave the other page up that shows the ttf. It is now unlocked. Drag it to your open "desk top font file folder". Close your desk top font fonder. Open up scal and see it it's there. If not unsure. Seems to be a good file.

The same thing happened to me! I ended up downloading it to my desktop...it is a zipped file. Then, I unzipped it...extracted it...to my desktop. Then I clicked on that icon and dragged it into my Windows Font folder. That is the only way I could get it to work. Hope this helps. Good Luck.
