First of all, there is* already finished* langdata for Spanish here <https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/langdata/tree/master/spa>. Download all the files then run combine_tessdata spa. (with the period)
Second, the fonts folder you're trying to access is *~/.fonts*, NOT /home/Fonts. Actually, you should run nautilus (the file browser) as root (by running gksudo) then move your fonts to /usr/share/fonts. That is the default location for fonts and it allows all users on the system to use the fonts you downloaded.
