Open a terminal and pop in the following…

gksu nautilus /usr/share/fonts/truetype

Create a folder for your fonts or just drag and drop a folder of fonts into the Nautilus window that opens.

Then…

Alt+F2

sudo fc-cache -f -v

Check ‘Run in Terminal’.

Thats it your new fonts are installed. You may have to restart your display to make new fonts appear so probably best to.
