Yes the zapf dingbats fonts are missing as described on www.blackdown.org.
Basically you must downlaod and install URW fonts urw-fonts.tar.gz from
 http://www.gimp.org/fonts.html. The installation description is described
on the
web page.

Subject: [JAVA3D] Font not found using Blackdown j3d


Hi,

When running any of the demos or my own j3d apps I get the following message
printed out several times:

Font specified in font.properties not found
[--zapfdingbats-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-adobe-fontspecific]

Right after the program starts to run.

It would be nice to get rid of this message - any suggestions?

Im using Blackdowns version of j3d (not sure what version but don't think it
matters for this issue) on Calder OpenLinux.

My guess is that I would have to install this font on the system for it to
get rid of this message (I dont think I will ever need to
use zapfdingbats!), Ive never installed a font in linux (and its obscure
enough in windows) so any pointers would be a help.
