+## Manually
+
+If the shell script does not work you can install the Pro version manually
+by replacing the font files in ```Fonts/```. First you need to download the
+Pro pack from the FontAwesome website (use the web version). Then rename
+the font files in the ```webfonts/``` folder like this:
+
+* fa-brands-400.ttf > FontAwesome5_Brands.ttf
+* fa-light-300.ttf > FontAwesome5_Light.ttf
+* fa-regular-400.ttf > FontAwesome5_Regular.ttf
+* fa-solid-900.ttf > FontAwesome5_Solid.ttf
+
+Place these in the ```Fonts/``` folder and replace the Free font files in the
+process.
