Simplest way to use the font in a Linux system is to create a .fonts directory in the user’s home directory and copy the font in that directory. Logout and login again and the font will be available to the user. Please note that the font will be available for that particular user only.
If you want to use the font for all the users in the system, just copy fonts under /usr/share/fonts/truetype and run fc-cache -f -v as root
