Often we need to use fonts other than those installed on our computers, whether for graphic design or simply for personal preference. Here are three groups of fonts: those from Windows Vista (Calibri, among others), several from Google Web Fonts , and Ubuntu Fonts . Choose the ones you want:
Windows Vista: Contains 24 files (3.2 MB).
GoogleWebFonts: Contains 722 files (51.9 Mb).
UbuntuFonts: Contains 26 files (6 MB).
To install them in the system we do the following:
We open a terminal and access the folder where the .zip file is located, example:
cd /home/perseo/Descargas
Unzip the file, example:
unzip Vista.zip
We move the folder to / usr / share / fonts, example:
sudo mv /home/perseo/Descargas/Vista /usr/share/fonts
We make sure that the folder has the proper permissions, example:
sudo chown -R root:root /usr/share/fonts/Vista
And we update the source cache:
sudo fc-cache -fv
Ready, we can make use of them;).
