You don't need to download it. If you want to use these fonts you are better
off using the API Google provides:

Please explain how our designers should use the Google API to load these fonts
into Photoshop for creating early-stage mockups.
...
We still need an easily accessible download for local use in non-browser
applications.

I agree. It's confusing when the Summary in the Project Home tab says "This
project contains the source files for fonts in the Google Font Directory," and
then there are no source files.

Well you can always download them one by one I assume, the source files -are-
there: http://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/source/browse/
(navigating to a .ttf file, then clicking "View Raw File" should trigger a
download for example)

I made a small script and downloaded all available fonts. I've attached a
compressed zip-file. Just unpack it, right click and "install".
It would still be nice if Google could provide us with an official up-to-date
archive on the main page.

Thank You Marekven!
It's odd to me that this isn't readily available for designers, who half the
time don't touch code, and are more often the ones that dictate which fonts are
used on a site.

This is definitely a must. Thank you marekven for the archive, I'm not going to
use fonts I can't design with.

Hi [email protected],
Is it possible to run the script again? I'd love to use the fonts in my
mockups, and i only find the old font files...

Wow and it only took six months. I mean, I try not to be a whiner, but I can't
imagine making use of GFD for anything of importance when giant glaring flaws
(of which this is just a minor example of the many), problems that could be
fixed in just a few minutes, take six months to be resolved. If ever.
Heck, you guys broke Nobile three weeks after GFD was announced and it STILL
hasn't been fixed.

I can't find the download link. Yes, each font variant is *individually*
downloadable, but my last pull contained 294 ttf files.
As far as I can tell there is still no single download archive, and this ticket
should not be marked as fixed.
The archive on my site has been updated and contains all 294 font files, plus
licenses and readme files: http://joemaller.com/1856/download-google-fonts/

Agreed it would be great to have an easy to access ZIP of all the font files,
esp for designers creating mock ups for sites in PhotoShop/Fireworks. :)

I have designers I work with that would love to use Google Fonts but don't
because they can't easily design with them. This would really help.

for usage and Mercurial retrieval here:

Yes, but as of today there are a couple of new fonts that were added recently,
so we either download them manually, or wait for Joe Maller to kindly run his
script or w/e he uses again and add the fonts to the pack, OR just a guy at
google, makes life easier for us all and makes a download link when new fonts
are added.
I think last option is easier.

I'm a designer and use Joe's site above to get the fonts. Google, please
package these up and make it easy for us to get in one swoop (and save Joe's
bandwidth). I'd even be okay downloading individually, if the links were up a
level (maybe "download" button next to each font on
http://www.google.com/webfonts ). But having to drill down for each one is not
a way to get 100+ fonts!!

Please make it so. This seems like a vast oversight on the fonts project. Would
take someone there to whip up a cron job to zip these up nightly.

It is abysmal that Google does not provide a single-archive download for the
Google Web Fonts! This was the very first thing that I wanted to do when
arriving on their web site, yet it is nowhere to be found.
Using some unofficial archive from a random person is not at all professional.
While I greatly appreciate the efforts of Joe Maller, and am not accusing him
personally, downloaded files shouldn't be left to unofficial channels -- that's
where you end up running into people posting files with viruses and so forth.
Google, it is not difficult to script a regeneration of a Zip file once new
additions arrive, or once fonts are removed (if that ever happens). Get on
this immediately!

Why in the world is this item marked as "Fixed" when it has not in any way been
fixed? The bug is that there is no up-to-date way to download the entire
Google Web Fonts collection in a Zip file from the official site.
IT IS NOT FIXED YET!

Since Google didn't actually fix it, I have compiled all 484 TTF files into a
single RAR (best compression) archive without them being in separate folders so
they can be easily installed on a machine.
Get the the archive from:
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=1e24d1f088f57788&sc=documents&id=1E24D1F088F57788
%21106
Uncompressed archive is 114MB.

Joe Maller's are still all in separate folders... I've taken them out of the
folders so they all can be selected and installed easily.

Dear Andrez,
When I was using Joe's zip, all I did was:
1. open the folder of folders,
2. do a search for '.*tf'
3. take the contents of all results into my fonts folder.
It seems to be a quick workaround for the 'separate folder' problem..

I would also recommend, if it's not too difficult, to have additional dated zip
files with only newly added or changed fonts. As the collection grows larger,
the base download also grows larger. So it would be convenient if people could
download a monthly update Zip of only the changes.
Cheers.

I wasn't able to locate the zip on the web site (comment 33) but here is an
extraction I was able to do using
7za -a -r -tzip googlefonts-2011-08-23.zip @../listfile.txt
With listfile.txt ...
*.otf
*.ttf
*.txt
README
LICENSE
This gives the license files and as a consequence necessitated keeping the
directory structure.

Okay, first point: this site is WAY too confusing for designers who don't
understand what to do with Mercurial, myself included. Can't Google simply put
up some links to consolidated ZIP or RAR files on the Web Fonts portal instead?
Otherwise, it would be helpful if someone posted a tutorial indicating what I
do with all these weird files Mercurial seems to be downloading. So far I have
over 330 MB of data and have yet to see a single TTF file. I'm worried I may
actually be wasting tons of time doing it this way versus braving the tedium of
dozens of instances of "click-review-download" as was my first instinct.
Either way, this is a usability issue. Learning a complex versioning/download
system should be optional. There's some room for improvement here. :)

How about a log in with a gmail account so you are given the option to only
download a "latest" batch that has new & changed fonts.
Another idea, how about pairing with Adobe so that adobe just goes out and
grabs new/changed fonts when it loads and then keeps them organized under a
"google fonts" section. Just wishing here...

I am a novice.
To get all the Google Web fonts I downloaded Mercurial for Mac OS X here:
http://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/
then after the download...
go to Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app, run Terminal.
Just cut and paste this into Terminal.app.
hg clone https://googlefontdirectory.googlecode.com/hg/ googlefontdirectory;
It will take a few minutes to download.
then go to your username folder (home) and open googlefontdirectory folder or
search for "googlefontdirectory" using Spotlight.
The fonts will be in there.
***Every once in a while open up Terminal and enter:
cd googlefontdirectory; hg pull;
this will update your font files.
Just remember that you have to install Mercurial First.
Hope this made sense. Its really easy, and I hope my trial and error will help
you all catch your own fish. :)

Re: Comment 43 above
I found and followed the instructions but no fonts showed up in the
googlefontdirectory folder in my home folder (I have Mac OS 10.6). Also I don't
see where Mercurial downloaded. If anyone can help, let me know.

Mercurial downloaded to the download folder.
It then installed to Library/Python... but I'm not sure what that is for. I
couldn't find anything in there.

I agree to have a easier solution. Mercurial is a pain in the ass for non
programmers / non Linux users. After all, it only downloads the fonts to a
folder, and later, you need to manually install the fonts (Mac user). What will
happen when I want to update the fonts? Yes, Mercurial will download only the
new fonts, but I won't know which ones are the new ones. Also, I have to use
double space to store fonts in this way: 700mb for the folder, and the same
space for the installed fonts. As it keeps growing, the problem will be worse.

Please note the subject of this thread defines it as for "non-technical users."
Talk of Terminal commands, Mercurial, sym links and such is simply out
of bounds for the intended audience. Not to be a crab about it, but
that's not going to work for 99.9% of your user base, even if it is
easy to do.

If the mac GUI is any good than there should be options in the GUI to make
symbolic links. I mention the command because that was easy for me. As my

Aliases in OS X are very similar to symbolic links (see here:
http://blog.julipedia.org/2007/01/mac-os-x-aliases-and-symbolic-links.html),
anyhow... all a bit off topic.
And that signature... seriously ???

What about it? I am not completely happy with it my self. It's in development.
I could put it in a webpage and link to it but who would click the link? So I
don't know. Any thoughts welcomed. Why the sig? It's out of frustration.
Though I did decide not post using email again before your post.
Will keep on topic for now on. So email me instead, your thoughts about my sig.

Don't get me wrong, the signature is wonderful in it's own right - just makes
scanning the thread very hard! :)

I agree it was very confusing while I tried to look through it,
expecting it to be about the thread topic.
Why not make it much shorter and have a link to a page and use one
different good point every now and then as like an advertisement to
get people to look at the main link you provide?
Like make the signature say things like ... " Did you know
LibreOffice can now import SVG graphics and let you edit them in Draw?

Why not email this person per their request, or start a new thread about
"Signatures"? Most of us are only interested in the Google font/Zip archive
discussion! Thanks :)

For what it's worth, I've just tested it on my MacBook. Aliases created in the
Finder *do not* install as fonts when dragged into ~/Library/Fonts, but
symlinks created using the command line do.
No idea why Apple didn't just decide to replace 'classic' aliases with proper
Unix symlinks... perhaps for compatibility with older OSes? I have no idea.
Anyway, there actually is a GUI-based solution for creating Unix-style symlinks
using the Finder that I found on Macworld's blog:

Oops, ignore the above. I could've sworn I'd tested this in the past and
symlinks worked in Font Book, but it turns out that I was misremembering. *Even
Unix-style symbolic links are not recognized as fonts in ~/Library/Fonts.* My
mistake!
(The reason I was misremembering is that this *does* work in X11-based Unix
apps on OS X... but these, needless to say, are an extreme minority of OS X
apps.)

Why is there no way to download all of the files in one ZIP file? As a designer
(NOT A PROGRAMMER) using AI and PSD to design site before they are handed off
to the coders to do their thing, I need to be able to try out and use fonts in
those programs. Downloading on at a time is too cumbersome .

A simple way to obtain and update the Google Fonts is definitely necessary.
I'd like to also see the fonts available in Linux repositories (Centos, Ubuntu).
My thanks to Joe Maller as well for making my life easier!

the last time I used webfonts, at the very end of the process of choosing
fonts, it gave me a link to download a zip file of the fonts in my collection,
in addition to the code to embed the fonts directly.

There are currently 455 font families.
Downloading each set with a link would be a long and tedious process.
Selecting them all and then downloading a collection would be faster, but still
a long and boring process.

@sq01neo I am seeing the same thing, although I get one step further to
`adding file changes`. I would guess a connection timeout, although at which
end I am not sure. Perhaps this needs a new issue to be created so that it
gets more attention.

Thank you Mr. Mailer!! I'm getting my website redone and need to be able to cut
n paste my own text on my own text documents to check visual font
compatibility-- I do NOT like being forced to do such things on a web browser.
I also like to have an archive. I went through and selected about 114 of the
501 fonts and want to sift through those as well. Add one to the chorus, you've
made my life easier with the zip folder.

Hi,
That is a great help - just one thing though sometimes the fonts have
specific details in their readme files regarding the individual font
license, are those license notes included somewhere in the zip at all
please?

I just wrote a shell script which fetches the up to date archive from
http://joemaller.com/1856/download-google-fonts/, extracts it and merges it
with my server's central font directory, then deletes the download. Add in
a weekly cron job and you're sorted :)

All zipball download links for this project return 403s - these can be found on
https://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/source/browse/. An example is
https://googlefontdirectory.googlecode.com/archive/default.zip. This could be a
problem with Google Code in general; I'm not really sure.
