Installing multiple operating systems on a single computer is nothing new, such as installing Windows 98 and installing Windows XP. Whether it's beautifying the system or making photos with Photoshop, you'll need to install some third-party font libraries.

Step 3: Press Ctrl+A to select all the font library files in the E:\\Fonts directory, right click and hold the selected file and drag and drop it to the system font directory, release the right button and then pop up the menu. Select “create shortcuts in the current location", these fonts will work. After installing in one system, reboot into another system to perform the same operation. This method can also solve the problem of tight system partition space after installing large fonts.

Click on the “Appearance” tab in the “Appearance” tab of the pop-up window, and tick “Use the following methods to smooth the edges of the screen font” in the drop-down list.
