instal microsoft trutype font on ubuntu

You can install the MS core fonts by installing the msttcorefonts package. To do this, enable the “Universe” component of the repositories. This is done by default in Feisty. After you do that, use the following command from the command line:

$sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts

This will give you the core fonts, but if there are other TrueType fonts that you want installed, it is as easy as copying the font files to the ~/.fonts/ directory.

installing this font may take a long time... just wait for bes appereance

After installing new fonts, you will have to log out and log in again to be able to see and use the new fonts. If you want to avoid this, you can regenerate the fonts cache by issuing the following command:

$sudo fc-cache -fv

install ubuntu font

I found a precious little gem quite by accident when I was using Synaptic (the package installer) today.

The package ttf-ubuntu-title consists of the font used by Ubuntu’s logo, you know, the familiar font used for the letters below:

masuk ke terminal dan ketikan command berikut ini :

$sudo apt-get install ttf-ubuntu-title

will install the font and make it available to GIMP, OpenOffice and everywhere else that you can use fonts.

If you only want the font, to install it on another OS or such, you can get it https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuTitle?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=ubuntu-title.otf. The font is an OpenType Font, which installs just like a TrueType font. The font is licensed using the LGPL, for those of you who wish to know.
