How To: Install Artwiz fonts in Ubuntu
This is a guide for installing the artwiz fonts pack in Ubuntu Jaunty.
Download an artwiz fonts pack from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/artwiz-latin1
Untar it by doing something like:
tar xvzf artwiz-latin1-1.1.tgz
sudo mv artwiz-latin1 /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc
Then execute the following commands:
sudo rm /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf
sudo cp /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d
sudo fc-cache -f -v
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config
If it prompts you (it may not), answer the next 3 prompts as the following:
1. Native
2. Automatic
3. Yes
Restart X and you will have Artwiz fonts.

Yay, this one is helpful!
I wonder why the last command doesn’t give me any of the 3 prompts, but it works anyway.
At last, got these awesome fonts working.
Thanks!
