Fonty linux install#
Fonts have been used as a source of security exploits (See CVEs) so to reduce the spread of attack install fonts inside ~/.fonts. The user font location is located in ~/.fonts which is the preferred install font location especially from unknown sources. We copy the file to the destination directory.Ĭp Season_of_the_Witch.Note: The system font directory is located at /usr/share/fonts which is reserved for the Alpine package creators and the package system. Mkdir /usr/share/fonts/"Season_of_the_witch"
Otherwise the terminal interprets each word as different directories) We create a folder with the name of the source in the destination directory (if the name has separate words it is put in quotes. We can do this directly.įirst we go to the directory where the font was downloaded, «Downloads». The installation of the fonts through the terminal is as simple as it is graphically, with the advantage that you do everything from the same window. If we open LibreOffice we can see that the font is already installed. We go to the "Permissions" tab and in "Group" and "Others" select the "Read only" option. One last step is still missing: give the file the corresponding permissions. To give a greater order to the destination directory, we can create a directory with the name of the source and inside it paste the file. Once we have the file explorer as root, we copy the font file to the directory / usr / share / fonts. Since at the moment I use Gnome I will have to do it with Nautilus. Therefore we enter a terminal, we log in as root and we open the file explorer of our preference or that comes with our desktop environment. This file will have to be copied to the / usr / share / fonts directory, but there is a "small" detail: we must have root permission to access it. This termination indicates that we are facing a file of typographic fonts. Once unzipped we will see that the file has the ending ttf. The decompression procedure may vary depending on the desktop environment.
