Someone just asked us over email how he would add a TTF font so that it would be available in a Jupyter Notebook on PythonAnywhere (eg. Humor Sans so that you can do XKCD-style plots). I thought it would be nice to share the instructions here:
- Create a directory in your home directory called
.fonts - In an IPython notebook, run the following two commands (you only need to run them once, so you can delete the cells afterwards, but they do need to be run from a notebook rather than in a console):
!fc-cache -f -v !rm ./.cache/matplotlib/fontList.cache
