You could put them somewhere below /usr/share/fonts/truetype or in 
~/.fonts. But please keep in mind that the fonts placed in ~/.fonts are 
unusable for other users...

The other thing to do is refresh the font cache when this is done - sudo
fc-cache -f -v

I've noticed that some fonts are instantly accessible - others are not.
YMMV.
