You can select multiple fonts famlies to be imported.  For example, if you want all of the “DJ” font family, you can click the first one in the group then hold down the <Shift> key, then click the last one in the group  The entire font family will be highlighted.

 

Once you have all the fonts selected, click the <Open> button.
