Ubuntu – Any way to get fonts to work in Libreoffice snap package

fontslibreofficesnap

I have installed Libreoffice 5.3 via snap, but it is only able to use a limited number of fonts. I have copied fonts into ~/.fonts and they still don't work. Once I copied fonts into ~/.fonts other snaps (like inkscape) could use the, but still not LO. Does anyone else have fonts working with LO or is this just a bug/limitation with the LO snap? I welcome any advice.

You must copy your fonts in ~/.font folder , then in terminal type sudo fc-cache -fv . go to this path ~/snap/libreoffice/current/ and make a link to ~/.fonts folder by below command:

ln -s {source-filename} {symbolic-filename}
ln -s ~/.fonts .fonts
