Yeah I'm having that problem too. It seems like Windows doesn't even
recognize that Francis *is* a font. I've installed other fonts in the way
you described above, and it worked great. But Francis has been one big
pain in the butt. Can anyone elaborate?

Maybe one of the problems is that you haven't unzipped it yet. In
() next to the font its said that the file is zipped. So save it as
.zip file, then unzip it to whatever directory you want the font.
Hope I was of some help.
