Fonts in Ubuntu

I was trying to read some south asian news papers and the fonts were giving me problems.

Finally had to install the fonts manually using CLI

Download the ttf font file.

Copy it to /usr/share/fonts

Make sure you are root

“sudo cp file.ttf /usr/share/fonts”

“sudo fc-cache -f -v”

This should update your font cache.

Make sure you close your browser and restart it.
