I tried to install the Dancing Script font on an Ubuntu VM through command lines. Following the instructions on this website worked:

apt-get install -y fonts-dancingscript

I am now trying to install the Parisienne font but I cannot manage to find how to do it or find the "ubuntu name". I tried to guess:

apt-get install -y fonts-parisienne

but, I got the error:

Unable to locate package fonts-parisienne

What is the correct command?

CodePudding user response：

Not all fonts exist in the Ubuntu package repository.

You can find all fonts in the repository here: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=fonts-

You can download the Parisienne font files and install them manually: https://askubuntu.com/questions/3697/how-do-i-install-fonts

I managed to do it with the help of @hookey's answer:

What I did was:

wget -P /usr/share/fonts/truetype/parisienne/ https://github.com/google/fonts/blob/5c3d8ef085f3084db38936d0dcd39a567dbc1e01/ofl/parisienne/Parisienne-Regular.ttf
