hi, i added a font matesc_regular.ttf to the /composeApp/src/commonMain/composeResources/drawable/font folder.
how do i create import this font Particulars.kt to create a fontFamily instance?

Your folder location for storing fonts is not correct one. You should store it into composeResources/font directory. Then you can access it Res.font. but I think you need to build your project first to make them available to you.

this worked but i am getting this now

Did you used correct import for Font?
import org.jetbrains.compose.resources.Font

^^^ when i used this i was getting build error
@Composable invocations can only happen from the context of a @Composable function

You have 2 options now. Either you make a method instead of variable like this:

@Composable
private fun interFamily() = FontFamily(
    Font(Res.font.matesc_regular, FontWeight.Normal)
)

Or you can also defined it in this way if you want to keep a variable:

val interFamily: FontFamily
    @Composable get() = FontFamily(
        Font(Res.font.matesc_regular, FontWeight.Normal)
    )
