Comment 2 for bug 1840199

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

How are you downloading the fonts?

The microsoft fonts installer requires that you accept the microsoft EULA (end user license agreement) and the installer fails intentionally if the EULA was not accepted. My guess is you're not accepting the required EULA and thus failure to install is mandated by microsoft.

It requires you to accept with the enter key (in most cases, why I asked how you are installing it)

I have marked this incomplete, if you believe I'm in error, please return it to new and leave a comment marking why. I suspect you're not accepting the EULA and thus install cannot be complete according to license terms.
