Import fonts into Houdini 15 running on Ubuntu


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

     I'm trying to import some true-type fonts to use in COPS in Houdini 15.   The SideFx doc says "Type 1, TrueType and OpenType fonts can be used. Houdini automatically scans the system and user font directories for compatible fonts." 

I installed some fonts in Ubuntu and restarted the computer, and Houdini but no luck!   Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

I got it!   Just have to go to view - show hidden files in your folder window, make a .font folder in your /home folder in Ubuntu.  Just drag your .otf's or .ttf's into that folder, I restarted Houdini, (and my pc, not sure if it was necessary) and it worked!
