The Nautilus font display is shown in Figure 11-1. The appearance will vary depending
on the currently selected view.
The lower- and uppercase letter A of each font are displayed, if the font has those
characters; double-clicking on a font (or right-clicking and selecting Open with
Gnome Font Viewer) will display some basic information about the font??”including
the license, file size, and font style??”along with an extended font sample
(Figure 11-2).
To install fonts into your personal font directory (~/.fonts), simply drag and drop
them into the Nautilus font display. The fonts may not show up immediately in the
display, but they will be installed.
A personal font can be deleted in the same way that a file is deleted using Nautilus:
drag it from the Nautilus window to the trashcan, or right-click on it and select
???Move to Trash.???
Nautilus does not permit you to install or delete system-wide fonts.
