How do I add a font

Doing a project where I need to add a Chinese Font for some simple text. Any idea where the fonts live? ( assuming I need only drop it in the appropriate folder)

Or any other thoughts on making it happen. Thanks

C:\Windows\Fonts\

I guess there's more too it. I have added a couple to the folder, but they sure don't look like Chinese. Thanks for confirming the location. I'll keep digging

In Vegas Pro don't check via the "Titles & Text" tool because there is a font bug in it. Use "(Legacy) Text" or "ProType Titler" instead.

Ah ok I'll try that. However I went to a English to Chinese Character converter page, typed in Study Hard, and got

努力学习 Then copied it in to Titles & Text and that worked. Thanks Marco, I can proceed now, but I will also try the Legacy Text.
