Review the fonts on your system. Fedora includes many fonts by default, to see which fonts are installed on your system, use *GNOME Font Viewer*, which is installed by default.

|
|
|
|
. Start *GNOME Software* by choosing *Software* from the Start menu.
|
|
. Search for 'Fontmatrix'.
|
|
. Choose 'Fontmatrix' from the results and click 'Install'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
