Fedora、CentOS install TTF/otf fonts

Step 1：切换至字体下载目录：

[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ ll | grep otf
-rw-rw-r--. 1 Richard Richard   16676 7月  19 2011 RBNo2Light_a.otf
-rw-rw-r--. 1 Richard Richard   17912 7月  19 2011 RBNo2Light.otf

Step 2：切换至root用户：

[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ su
密码：
[root@localhost Downloads]# 

Step 3：新建/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType目录

[root@localhost Downloads]# mkdir /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType

Step 4：把字体拷贝到新建的目录下

[root@localhost Downloads]# cp RBNo2Light*.otf /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType/

Step 5：切换至字体所在目录

[root@localhost Downloads]# cd /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType/

Step 6：创建fonts.scale

[root@localhost TrueType]# ll
总用量 40
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 16676 12月  1 20:59 RBNo2Light_a.otf
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 17912 12月  1 20:59 RBNo2Light.otf
[root@localhost TrueType]# ttmkfdir 
[root@localhost TrueType]# ll
总用量 44
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root     2 12月  1 21:00 fonts.scale
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 16676 12月  1 20:59 RBNo2Light_a.otf
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 17912 12月  1 20:59 RBNo2Light.otf

Step 7：创建fonts.dir

[root@localhost TrueType]# mkfontdir 
[root@localhost TrueType]# ll
总用量 48
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root     2 12月  1 21:00 fonts.dir
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root     2 12月  1 21:00 fonts.scale
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 16676 12月  1 20:59 RBNo2Light_a.otf
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 17912 12月  1 20:59 RBNo2Light.otf

Step 8： 将字体路径添加到X Font serve 路径(或者[root@localhost Downloads]# /usr/sbin/chkfontpath --add /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType)：

[root@localhost TrueType]# chkfontpath --add /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType

Step 9：更新字体信息cache

[root@localhost TrueType]# fc-cache

Step 10：查看字体

[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ fc-list :lang=en | grep RB
/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType/RBNo2Light.otf: RBNo2 Light:style=Regular
/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType/RBNo2Light_a.otf: RBNo2 Light Alternative :style=Regular

备注：如果没有chkfontpath，则安装chkfontpath（chkfontpath依赖xfs），安装方法如下：

Step 1： http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/13943722/dir/centos_5/com/chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm.html下载chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm，然后安装。

Step 2：rpm安装chkfontpath（可能缺少依赖）

[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ chmod +x chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm 
[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ sudo rpm -ivh chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm 
[sudo] password for Richard: 
警告：chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm: 头V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, 密钥 ID e8562897: NOKEY
错误：依赖检测失败：
    xfs 被 chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64 需要

Step 3：安装xfs依赖

[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ sudo yum install xfs

Step 4：使用RPM安装chkfontpath：

[Richard@localhost Downloads]$ sudo rpm -ivh chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm
