+You can now modify the default line spacing in Hack fonts with our new `font-line` tool. Hack uses a default value of 20% UPM for line spacing. Decrease the value to tighten the spacing, increase it to widen your spacing. Modification details are available on the `font-line` repository:

For other systems, check for packages using your distro's package manager search function. If no packages exist download your preferred format and copy the font files to either your system font folder (often `/usr/share/fonts/`) or user font folder (often `~/.local/share/fonts/`). On systems using Fontconfig you may need to regenerate the font caches and indexes after copying the files (e.g. `fc-cache -s; mkfontscale <install_path>; mkfontdir <install_path>`).

+@texhex created a [multi-font installer for Windows 7 - Windows 10](https://github.com/texhex/OSFontPack) that is actively maintained and includes the current release of the Hack fonts. Windows has a complex font caching mechanism that has led to problems for many users who try to install a new version of the Hack fonts over previously installed versions. Michael's tool addresses these caching issues. See [issue report #177](https://github.com/chrissimpkins/Hack/issues/177) for details about the tool and check out his repository for more information.
