Also, here you can decide if the fonts will be installed just for the current user, or for all users of the computer. Before doing this I highly recommend to choose "Preferences" from the "Font Book" menu and ensure that "Validate fonts before installing" is enabled. In the drop-down list next to activate the 'Computer'. Find the inscription 'Default account locations'. Apple menu Hover the mouse over the 'Fonts' and click on the 'Settings'. To add fonts using Font Book, open the application and choose "Add Fonts" from the "File" menu. Only the administrator has the right to install fonts for all system users. In addition, Font Book shows the fonts which are installed and allows you to disable them. Fonts are notorious for being corrupt and causing issues. In addition to automatically coping the font to the proper font folders (outlined in Rich Bradshaw's answer) Font Book will verify the font before installing.
I suggest using the "Font Book" program located in /Applications. Previous answer (for reference purposes only): Or you could do as Rich suggested and just move the file using the C rename() function. All you have to do is find and download the font you like and then add it. This could be executed in C++ via the osascript command if you need help with that, it's a separate question altogether. Microsoft Word is an incredible app used by several people around the world.
INSTALL FONT FOR ALL APLICATIONS MAC HOW TO
To answer the new question of how to install fonts programatically on a Mac, Rich's answer is correct, just move them into the fonts folder.ĮDIT: To fit within the spirit of my previous answer, here's a (roughly done) AppleScript which will install a font file located at /some/path/to/a/font_file.ttf by using the OS X application "Font Book" set theFontPath to "/some/path/to/a/font_file.ttf" My previous answer was for the unedited question.
