Is a wrong impression
Gimp may use most (maybe all) of fonts included in windows as default, less of
the Extra Fonts that you may found on the net ..
To install new fonts in Gimp you may simply install them as font in windows
If some fonts do not show up you may try to copy them , paste in a new
folder,and from Gimp ,exactly from Edit/preferences/font add a path to that new
font folder and then reload gimp
That often help, if doesn't usually fonts are incompatible
(the fact that some other programs may use them here is not relevant except if
you want use that fonts with that other program )
