Is this a suitable question for Ask Ubuntu?

Question

There is a particular font that I want to use. I don't know what it's called, but I can scan in an example.

Is Ask Ubuntu the appropriate place to ask something like "Is this font available for Ubuntu, and if so, how do I install it?"

Answer 1

There are a few component questions here:

• "What is this font?" — Probably off-topic.
• "What formats is this font available as?" — Again, fairly off-topic and probably answered by the first question.
• "Does Ubuntu support this format of font?" — On topic.
• "How do I install this font?" — On topic.

On balance, the first half is probably more one for a design SE site (honestly not sure where is best) or even just WhatTheFont for some self-help.

Then once you know what the font is available as, you could either look for questions about installing fonts or ask a new one about your particular font if it isn't a OTF or TTF font format.
