System-wide

To install a TrueType font (.ttf) for all users on your system, follow these steps:

# Copy or move the font file to /usr/share/fonts/
sudo cp <location of your .ttf file> /usr/share/fonts/truetype/

# Update the font cache to make the new font available
sudo fc-cache -fv

# Verify the installation
fc-list | grep "<font name>"
