Instructions for using fonts in Emacs

[nordlow]

Is there an instruction for installing these fonts so that they are automatically chosen by Emacs?

If you are on Linux, I think there is no need for an Emacs-specific setting. You will need to set them up as the default/preferred fonts via fontconfig. You can check my dotfiles' "fontconfig" folder for an idea: <https://github.com/protesilaos/dotfiles>. All files go inside ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/

Emacs Setup

Add this to your init.el:

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Iosevka Comfy Motion 14")

Of course, set the variant and size you want.
