@rfakit, would you be able to provide more details about where you would like to install the bigbluebutton-font? Today, it's part of the main BigBlueButton codebase, and there is no need to install it again if you are currently developing BigBlueButton.

I was looking for a way to make the icons display correctly on Windows in a Firefox where font downloading is disabled for security reasons. My steps to success were:

1. Download the TTF files from the URLs in the CSS snippet below.
2. Install them locally. (Control Panel -> Fonts; then drag-and-drop the font files from the download folder into the fonts folder.)
3. Ensure you have a mechanism to override websites' CSS rules, e.g. the Stylus addon.
4. Override the font names similar to the CSS below.

For the Stylus addon, one way to override font names is:

1. Host a version of the CSS file below on a webserver you trust, with the domain names changed to where your BBB is hosted.
2. Visit the URL of the hosted CSS file with your Firefox.
3. Stylus asks whether to install the UserStyle; select yes.
