I use these fonts when I'm doing photography and I need to make it look like there was writing on a chalkboard. Here are a few examples:
You can see that in these images, the text doesn't look as perfect and bright white as the list image at the top of this post. Here's how I make it look more like a real chalk sign:
Step 1 - Pick a font and write text
Step 2 (optional) - Transform/rotate your text to match orientation of chalkboard (Ctl+T)
Step 3 - Pick a slightly off-white colour. Pure white is too bright & perfect.
Step 4 - Turn the layer opacity down to 50%
Step 5 - Make a copy of the text layer and open the layer style window. Select 'outer glow' and mess around with the opacity & size sliders until it looks how you want it.
Step 6 - Create a layer mask on each of the text layers, and with a soft brush, slowly remove some of the text so that it looks smudged or worn off.
Final Product!
