That's the problem - you're downloading it. Once you have purchased a
legitimate licence you may return here for assistance. We do not assist

Where are you "downloading" it from? Plus it seems odd that it's getting
hung up on a font.

Where are you trying to download this from? From an MS site or a 3rd party site
