  <title>Add an extra font for all users</title>

  <p>You can install an extra font which will be available to users in
  applications that use <sys>fontconfig</sys> for font handling.</p>

  <steps>
    <title>Install an extra font</title>
    <item>
      <p>Copy the font to the <file>/usr/local/share/fonts/</file>
      directory to install it.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>You may need to run the following command to update the font cache:</p>
      <screen><output>$ </output><input>fc-cache /usr/local/share/fonts/</input></screen>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>You may need to restart running applications to see the changes. User
  sessions do not need to be restarted.</p>
  
  <p>Alternatively, you can also install fonts in another system directory than
    <file>/usr/local/share/fonts/</file> if that directory is listed in the
    <file>/etc/fonts/fonts.conf</file> file. If it is not, then you need
    to create your own machine-wide configuration file in
    <file>/etc/fonts/local.conf</file> containing the directory you
    want to use. See the <cmd>fonts-conf</cmd>(5) man page for more
    information.</p>
  <p>If you are using an alternative directory, remember to specify
    the directory name when updating the font cache with the <cmd>fc-cache</cmd>
    command:</p>
  <screen><output>$ </output><input>fc-cache <var>directory_name</var></input></screen>
