    The font may be in a suitcase, just drag it and drop onto the System Folder icon and it will install it for you

    Macs usually use the SIT (StuffIt) format. And I'm not sure if later versions work with .ttf fonts, normally Macs use PostScript fonts.

    It's just under the root of the hard disk.
