~How to install these fonts on your computer:

The fonts are in compressed (.zip files). The latest Operating Systems (OS) are now able to open these in their own folders when you click on the file. If your computer is older and unable to open these files, then you will need a utility such as WinZip or WinRar to uncompress them. Download a free evaluation version of WinZip or WinRar.

Each zip file contains the true type font file (.ttf) and a text file (.rtf) that contains aditional info about the font and its use & features; please read it.

You can extract (uncompress) the font file directly to your C:\WINDOWS\Fonts folder if you want or you can extract it to a temporary folder then follow the font installation instructions can be found at MyFonts.com or from Paul Morrow's Site.

For Windows Vista / 7 and above users:

Right-click the font file(s) and choose Install.

For users of the previous Windows versions:

Copy the included file(s) into a default Windows font folder (usually C:\WINDOWS\FONTS or C:\WINNT\FONTS)

For Mac:

Expand any compressed fonts packages.
Double-click the icon of the font file you want to install. The Font Book will open and display the font so you can preview it.
By default, the application installs the font in the Library folder of your home directory, making it available only to you. To make it available to all users on the computer, from the Font Book menu, select Preferences... , and then change the "Default Install Location:" from User to Computer.
Click Install Font.

Font Manager programs
Here's a list of the best free applications: http://www.techsupportalert.com/best-free-font-manager.htm

I received reports that having multiple fonts accessing the same Unicode ranges creates an access conflict within the web browser. Until I separate the Unicode parts of my baybáyin fonts (having two files per font instead of one), a Font Manager program may be the best solution for now. If you're experiencing problems with baybáyin fonts, you can uninstall them from your OS but still keep the font files in a separate folder (I like to keep mine in my Adobe/Fonts folder), and then use a Font Manager to activate them one at a time, at any time, resolving the conflicts.

For Mac:

It's a lot easier to manage fonts on a Mac which as the "Font Book" utility. Just open it up and select the "User" in the collection tab/menu. It will display all of your downloaded and installed fonts (separate from the system fonts that are bundled with the OS).
Hold "control" then click on the font you want to disable. It will show a popup menu where you can disable/enable/remove any particular font. Easy!

Cear Type Display
For those who type Baybayin Unicode online, make sure your browser supports font anti-aliasing so the characters wouldn't be so pixelated. Also, if you're using Microsoft Windows OS, turn on Clear Type Display - it smooths out the fonts so you can read everything clearly.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ClearType

Adjust your browser's font sizes to see kudlit & virama marks easier. Or you can easily Zoom-in & Zoom-out of your browser if need be:

Zoom-In: Press and Hold "Ctrl" & "+" button or Press "Ctrl" & move "Mouse wheel Up".
Zoom-Out: Press and Hold "Ctrl" & "-" button or Press "Ctrl" & move "Mouse wheel Down".

A Note On Baybayin Styles and Names

Although there are many forms of the baybayin, it must be remembered that they are not unique to the languages that share their names. That is to say, the baybayin, like our modern alphabet, can be written or printed in many ways and each style can be used to write in any language. Just as italic printing is not only for Italian, a so-called Tagalog baybayin is not just for Tagalog or a supposed Ilokano script only for Ilokano etc.
The baybayin is a single writing system. The confusion between the forms of the baybayin and various Filipino languages may be due to historical circumstances or just sloppy reporting on the part of some historians. For example, the typeface chosen by Father Francisco Lopez in 1620 to print the Ilokano version of the Doctrina Christiana looks different to the one used in the Tagalog version of 1593 but they are both just two styles of the one baybayin. However, the Lopez typeface has since come to be mistaken in some circles as the “Ilokano alphabet” simply because it was used most notably in an Ilokano book.
Other forms of the baybayin such as Bikol and Bisaya have similar histories. Their origins can be traced only as far back as certain modern printed documents of the Spanish era that were written in their respective languages – their particular styles originating in the artistry of the authors. – PAUL MORROW
