Mandrake 8.0+
With Mandrake, you can use the DrakFont program, accessible from within the Mandrake Control Centre. This program performs exactly the same steps as for the other distributions described below, but automates the whole process. If you have a dual-boot setup it can copy the fonts from the Windows directory; alternatively it can copy fonts from any directory you select.
Select the Fonts option in Mandrake Control Center, then select "Add Fonts" or "Get Windows Fonts".
If you select "Add Fonts", select the directory in which the fonts are currently stored. This will display a list of fonts from the specified directory.
Select "Add All", or choose those fonts you want to install and click "Add Selected Fonts". This will add the selected fonts.
Some applications might not recognise the newly added fonts until the font server is restarted.
