If there are other TrueType fonts that you want installed, it is as easy as copying the font files to the "~/.fonts/" directory or this directory "/usr/share/fonts/truetype". To copy from the ubuntu konsole you will have to use cp command.
EXAMPLE COMMAND:"sudo cp /home/*.* /usr/share/fonts/truetype"
After installing new fonts, you will have to log out and log in again to be able to see and use the new fonts. If you want to avoid this, you can regenerate the fonts cache by issuing the following command: sudo fc-cache -fv
You can install the MS core fonts by installing the "msttcorefonts" package. To do this, enable the “Universe” component of the repositories. This is done by default in Feisty. After you do that, use the following command from the command line: sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
