## Installing the LightDM Webkit Theme Font
The LightDM webkit theme requires the `Less Perfect DOS VGA` font from the `Fonts/vga_font` folder to be installed somewhere into `/usr/share/fonts` for LightDM to use the correct font for the greeter.
Follow these steps to install the font into `/usr/share/fonts`:
```
sudo cp -v Chicago95-master/Fonts/vga_font/LessPerfectDOSVGA.ttf /usr/share/fonts
```
Then, refresh the font cache with:
```
sudo fc-cache -fv
```
