Google, maybe?

And as for where to put 'em, in Windows, C:\Windows\Fonts; in Mac, /Library/Fonts; in Linux, either /home/.fonts or /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

You can put them where you put the regular fonts for the rest fo the programs, and system, in the fonts folder, as for download there are hundreds of free fonts available in the internet, just do a search....

If you are using Photoshop 3.0 then it's very doubtful. 3.0 was a version circa ~1997-8. CS2 previews them, but I know 7 didn't (which was my previous version).

HOWEVER, if you are using Photoshop ELEMENTS 3.0, then it should have font preview... just pull the font elector down and look at the 'Sample' text after the font's name.

If you are using PS 3.0 you really should look into updating your software.

Cheers,
Jeremy
