How do I install fonts on Linux machines?

Manually download the FONT.ttf font by clicking on the below link. Copy the font to your Fonts directory (usually /usr/share/fonts). You need to login as the root user to perform this operation.
Reboot the system.
If you do not have the root permission, please do the following steps.
Copy the FONT.ttf font to a directory.
Change to that direcroty and run the following commands.
Run ttmkfdir > fonts.dir
Run ttmkfdir > fonts.scale
/usr/X11R6/bin/xset fp+font directory
/usr/X11R6/bin/xset fp rehash
Open the browser and change the character encoding to “User Defined”
