For clarity, it is good to keep each font in its own directory. The creation of a subdirectory structure is up to the user, and varies among Linux distributions. /usr/share/fonts/ is under the purview of the package manager, and should not be modified manually.You may need to create the directory first: mkdir -p /usr/local/share/fonts.For system-wide (all users) installation, place your fonts under /usr/local/share/fonts/. ![]()
