Import Microsoft fonts to Debian

OS: Debian Testing (Stretch)

As lack of fonts, I can't print the invoice correctly. After check Debian Wiki, there are 2 locations to store fonts: 

/usr/local/share/fonts    for Global and all users
~/.fonts                           for current user

So, copy Windows fonts to /usr/local/share/fonts:

cp    /Windows_fonts_Location/*.*  /usr/local/share/fonts/

Completed.
