Using a Windows 10 OS, while trying to install Sackers Gothic Light Medium (ttf), to Premiere Pro, I keep receiving two error messages. The program states that the file is not a valid file and the file is not supported. Thank you in advance for any help!

    The wonders of fonts, sometimes. We've all been there. Is there perhaps another source where you can obtain a different font version? E.g. OTF instead of TTF?

    I can imagine you want to use this inside PPro, but I'm afraid I can't help you out. Perhaps an Adobe staff member is able to help you...

    What I can advise is to use Photoshop, Illustrator or After Effects to prepare your graphical items there and then import them as PSD, AI or AE files into PPro. Not ideal, but if you're on a deadline, do whatever it takes to get the job done.

    You can't install fonts directly to premiere pro.

    Either the font file will install on your Windows OS and you can use it after a restart of PPro, or it doesn't.

    If the font file is corrupt, you can't install it. Can you use the font in another application, say, Word, Illustrator or Photoshop?

    Yes, I have been able to use it in Photoshop.

    Being able to use the font in PS does not mean it will play nice in Pr.

    Pr can be very picky at times regarding fonts.

    Why not pick a font from TypeKit.
