Make sure that the font is not only in your fonts folder (in the system folder), but check the Adobe Illustrator folder for a fonts folder as well. Depending on if you're on Mac or PC, Illustrator requires that it has a font suitcase or True Type font copied into the software folder. Just drag and drop if needed, restart and Illustrator should recognize the font then.

After I scan my hand lettering in cursive into the computer do I just lettering live trace it in illustrator or do i do something else?

Adobe Illustrator, a vector graphics creation and editing program, natively saves files in the ".AI" format. Most fonts for your computer are saved in ".TTF" (True Type Font) format, which requires a special font-editing program to open and edit. If you create images or letters in Adobe Illustrator that you want to convert into a TTF file so you can use them in other programs as a font, the best method is to install a font-editing program that can import AI files.
