To refresh your Linux machine’s font cache, type:
sudo fc-cache -f -v
where -f means forced (we want to refresh everything) and -v means verbose, in order to print some useful information on installed fonts and newly discovered ones.

Where Linux Stores Fonts
While fonts on your Linux box can be located in many different directories, there are some standard installation destinations.
/usr/share/fonts
/usr/local/share/fonts
~/.fonts
Any of these folders will work for you.
REMEMBER ::: fonts in ~/.fonts directory will be available only for your presently active user.
