I am trying to download a Google Web Font to Gimp 2.8. I copied and pasted the TTF file to the fonts library, restarted Gimp, but the font still does not show up. I am working on Windows Vista.
Am I missing something? Thanks for helping.

According to the GIMP documentation, GIMP 2.8 does accept TTF files. Instead of adding directly to GIMP's fonts folder, add it to Windows fonts directory. A search for 'fonts' immediately shows the file. Adding the file here will make it usable in all applications, including GIMP.

This is not a solution, but rather a workaround. – gronostaj – 2015-02-28T19:59:25.553
I installed it in the directory, it's still not working – Rockstar5645 – 2016-07-24T07:19:55.613
1Can you see the font in another program ? (notepad for example) – Ofiris – 2012-12-21T22:51:39.980
