Have you made them available to the X server? e.g: by creating an
appropriate fonts.dir and adding the directory to the FontPath, or using a
seperate fonts server.

Another way some programs can use fonts is through the the RENDER
extention, and by providing an appropriate XftConfig. Not all programs
currently support this (and frankly, I haven't yet figured out how it work
..)

no. xlsfonts lists fonts that are available to the server. It doesn't care
about their origin.

What happens when you run 'xlsfonts -fn <fontname>' ?
