To download and install all the Google Web Fonts in Ubuntu, open a terminal and type the following commands:
cd && wget http://webupd8.googlecode.com/files/install-google-fonts
chmod +x install-google-fonts
./install-google-fonts
If you want to take a look at the script before running it, download it from
HERE.
Once the script finishes downloading
and installing the fonts, you can go ahead and try them out. If you want
to use one of the Google Web Fonts for your desktop, right click your
Desktop, select "Preferences" and set the new font on the "Fonts" tab.
The script creates a
"googlefontdirectory" folder in the directory where you run it (your
home folder if you've followed our exact instructions) - you can either
delete this folder or keep it and the next time you run the script, it
will only update the fonts instead of completely downloading them all
over again.
I found this script on Web UPD8 and is easy peasy. It takes a little time to download so be patient.
