How to install custom fonts on Linux

  1. fc-list # list available fonts, if command not found on Amazon Linux 2023, run sudo dnf install fontconfig
  2. unzip basier.zip # basier.zip is what we downloaded from the internet (e.g. www.fontsquirrel.com/)
  3. sudo mv BasierCircle-Regular.otf /usr/share/fonts && sudo mv BasierSquare-Regular.otf /usr/share/fonts # move the unziped files(either *.ttf or .otf) into /urs/share/fonts/
  4. fc-list | grep Basier verify that the new fonts are installed
  5. fc-cache -r # update font config cache
