🗃️ FontInstaller

A font installer script for Windows

Usage

Install multiple fonts in bulk

To install a font, simply specify the path of the font file as the first argument. This script resolves the path automatically, so you can specify wild card e.g. *.ttf.

❯ Install-Font.ps1 Somefont/             # Directory path
❯ Install-Font.ps1 path/to/SomeFont*.ttf # File path includes wild card

Install from zip archive

When this script finds the zip file, it automatically extract the zip file to a temporary directory and installs all the fonts stored in it.

❯ Install-Font.ps1 Somefont.zip

Show already installed fonts list

To see a list of already installed fonts, run Get-Font.ps1. You can narrow the list by specifying the -Name, -Path parameter.

❯ Get-Font.ps1 -Name udev

Name               Path
----               ----
UDEV Gothic 35NF   C:\Windows\Fonts\UDEV Gothic 35NF
UDEV Gothic 35NFLG C:\Windows\Fonts\UDEV Gothic 35NFLG
UDEV Gothic NF     C:\Windows\Fonts\UDEV Gothic NF
UDEV Gothic NFLG   C:\Windows\Fonts\UDEV Gothic NFLG
