大多數教育機構仍在使用 Microsoft 字體， 我不清楚其他國家是什么情況。但在泰米爾納德邦（印度的一個州）， Times New Roman 和 Arial 字體主要被用于大學和學校的幾乎所有文檔工作、項目和作業。不僅是教育機構，而且一些小型組織、辦公室和商店仍在使用 MS Windows 字體。以防萬一，如果你需要在 Ubuntu 桌面版上使用 Microsoft 字體，請按照以下步驟安裝。

免責聲明： Microsoft 已免費發布其核心字體。 但請注意 Microsoft 字體是禁止使用在其他操作系統中。在任何 Linux 操作系統中安裝 MS 字體之前請仔細閱讀 EULA 。我們不負責這種任何種類的盜版行為。

在 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS 桌面版上安裝 MS 字體

如下所示安裝 MS TrueType 字體：

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install ttf-mscorefonts-installer

然后將會出現 Microsoft 的最終用戶協議向導，點擊 OK 以繼續。

點擊 Yes 已接受 Microsoft 的協議：

安裝字體之后， 我們需要使用命令行來更新字體緩存：

$ sudo fc-cache -f -v

在 Linux 和 Windows 雙啟動的機器上安裝 MS 字體

如果你有 Linux 和 Windows 的雙啟動系統，你可以輕松地從 Windows C 驅動器上安裝 MS 字體。 你所要做的就是掛載 Windows 分區（C:/windows)。

我假設你已經在 Linux 中將 C:\Windows 分區掛載在了 /Windowsdrive 目錄下。

現在，將字體位置鏈接到你的 Linux 系統的字體文件夾，如下所示：

ln -s /Windowsdrive/Windows/Fonts /usr/share/fonts/WindowsFonts

鏈接字體文件之后，使用命令行重新生成 fontconfig 緩存：

fc-cache

或者，將所有的 Windows 字體復制到 /usr/share/fonts 目錄下并使用一下命令安裝字體：

mkdir /usr/share/fonts/WindowsFonts
cp /Windowsdrive/Windows/Fonts/* /usr/share/fonts/WindowsFonts
chmod 755 /usr/share/fonts/WindowsFonts/*

***，使用命令行重新生成 fontconfig 緩存：

fc-cache

測試 Windows 字體

安裝 MS 字體后打開 LibreOffice 或 GIMP。 現在，你將會看到 Microsoft coretype 字體。

就是這樣， 希望這本指南有用。我再次警告你，在其他操作系統中使用 MS 字體是被禁止的。在安裝 MS 字體之前請先閱讀 Microsoft 許可協議。
