adding ttf fonts
Published October 20th, 2009 by Chad
This is really simple to do. If you have a ttf font file that you would like to get added to your font list is programs (OOWord, Gimp, etc) just copy the font files into your /home/username/.fonts/ folder (create it if it doesn’t exist) and then rebuild the font cache with the following command:
sudo fc-cache -f -v
Done!
That wasn’t so hard. By just doing a quick Google search for something like “free truetype fonts” you will find a whole bunch of sites that allow you to download many different fonts.
