Earlier today, I was assigned a simple task to add two custom fonts for a client's project. It took me 15 minutes on Stack Overflow to find a fast way to do this. Found it and here are the steps:

Install / download / require the tcpdf library into your project.
Open the library folder (for example mine was: ./vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf).
Notice and enter to the tools folder.
Copy the TTF file(s) into this tools folder.
Run this command from the terminal (still from the tools folder): $ php tcpdf_addfont -i BOOKOS.TTF (Replace BOOKOS.TTF with your own fonts)
Repeat step (5) for each fonts desired.

Coding time..
To change between fonts from your php code, use the following scripts.

$pdf->SetFont($font_family = ‘bookos’, $variant = ‘’, $fontsize = 11);
