I just put my fonts in ~/.fonts directory. This way, they survive any
upgrades or reinstalls by only restoring my home dir. 

Nautilus used to have a fonts:/// access, but now I dont' see it
working.

AFAIK, system fonts are located in /usr/share/fonts, but i didnt try
putting fonts over there. Maybe needs restarting xorg.

Good luck.
