Have a look here:

Also note that sometimes folks get confused when they get to the " file
browser" part and attempt to enter fonts:/// in a web browser. The file
browser that they are refering to is your Nautilus *file browser*; once
in the file browser just enter CTL-L as in the instructions.

After your fonts are installed, I also recommend that you update your
fonts cache(s) from a terminal window by:

sudo fc-cache -fv
