Zipped Files
Most of these downloads of Black Chancery Font will come to you as zipped files. Zipped files have undergone a coding that compresses them, making them smaller bundles to move around. But when you want to install or use them, they have to be UNzipped so they expand to their original, usable size and become executable programs.

The most popular Zip/Unzip program seems to be WinZip. It has wonderful and numerous features, but it is not freeware or shareware. You can find it HERE

A much less expensive program, but one that only UNzips, is the very easy-to-use Unzip Wizard. You can use this for a trial period and it has an attractive price. But it doesn't ZIP things. You can find it HERE

EasyZip is free at http://www.thefreesite.com/easyzip111.htm

Zip Reader is free at http://www.pkware.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=59&Itemid=103/

We make no recommendation on which software to use or that these products actually work. We are just listing some alternative that you can look into for a Zip and/or UnZip program.
