Question
Hello Candice,
could you tell me how i can import any font to use within photoshop cs2, and does the font folder have to be placed in a certain folder,if so where. I am using a windows xp based PC not a mac.
Many thanks for your help, Paul Hill.

Answer
hey there,

You can't just import a font to photoshop only.  You need to put the font in either your fonts folder or your font program.  
To install it on the computer:

go to control panel
fonts
drag the font you want in that folder.
done ;)

if you go back to photoshop and that font is still not there, try restarting photoshop.

Candice :)
