font path question

font path question

[luigi scarso]

I would like to use a set of of fonts in a per-job-base folder, ie

job_folder_0001
  |___myfonts
  <some job files here...>

job_folder_0002
  |___myfonts
  <some job files here...>

job_folder_0003
  |___myfonts
  <some job files here...>

and so on,
where
myfonts
 |_font1.otf

myfonts
  |_font1.otf
  |_font2.otf
  |_font3.otf

Is there any env. variable to set ?
Can I do it with some kind of macro ? (better)

Maybe the right question is
"Can I add a path to system font path at runtime ?"
