How can one use a .tff font in Word 2013 as unpriviliged user without PowerShell?

Question

I would like to use a font I have available as a .ttf file for one of my texts.

The obvious way to do that is to install the font system wide and use it that way.

Is there a different path one could take when administrative privileges are not available (the execution of PowerShell scripts is blocked too)? It feels like that should be possible.

edit: I haven't yet gotten the PowerShell method linked here to work. I would like to keep the question up, as I am hoping for a method within Word, to bundle the .ttf with or at least open it for specific documents. (along the lines of: Format -> Fonts -> add Font file to document) edit2: Sadly the execution of PowerShell scripts is unavailable on the machines in question. UnauthorizedAccess

Answer 1

You can't install a font permanently under a non-admin account, but you can do it temporarily (for the current session). Check Pabru's answer here.

P.S. OK, if PowerShell doesn't work, this is the corresponding MSVC code:

int _tmain(int argc, TCHAR* argv[]) {
    if(argc != 2)   {
        std::cout << "Usage: RegFont <font-file>\n";
        return 1;
    }

    AddFontResource(argv[1]);
    return 0;
}

Try running RegFont32 <font-file> or RegFont64 <font-file>
