Description Jonh Wendell 2010-04-20 13:30:11 UTC 
Currently the install button installs fonts in ~/.fonts directory. It'd be useful to have a way to install these fonts in the system, making them available to all users.

-> gnome-utils

gnome-font-viewer has now moved to gnome-utils, reassigning.
Comment 2 Allan Day 2013-04-19 14:31:06 UTC 
Yes, this seems like it would be a nice enhancement. Bonus points for integrating with something like Google Web Fonts. :)
