# Font Setup
-
============
+To use the proper font for PDF rendering you need install the necessary typefaces into your TeX distribution.
+
+
## Installing Open Sans
1. Find your texmf directory: `kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME`
-2. Copy the font files from the fonts directory in the repository to your texmf folder.
-3. Run `mktexlsr` to refresh the file name database and make TEX aware of the new files.
-4. Run `updmap --enable Map=opensans.map` to make Dvips, dvipdf and pdfTEX aware of the new fonts.

+2. Copy the font folders from the `fonts/opensans` directory in the repository to the respective folders your texmf folder. Be careful not to replace any existing contents in there.
+3. Run `mktexlsr` to refresh the file name database and make TEX aware of the new files. (You _may_ need `sudo` here.)
+4. Run `updmap --enable Map=opensans.map` to make `Dvips`, `dvipdf` and `pdfTEX` aware of the new fonts.
+
+
+Now you can use `make pdf` to render a PDF using the new fonts.
