Install New Font in Inkscape on Ubuntu

  1. Create a folder for the font in /usr/share/fonts/truetype. (Of course, this is only for TTFs)
  2. Move the .ttf file into the newly created folder.
  3. Delete the font caches at /usr/share/fonts/*fonts-cache-1 and ~/*fonts.cache-1.
  4. Restart Inkscape.
  5. Enjoy the new font!
