Ok, if it is TureType fonts.
It is quite easy.

All the font services in X11R6 are being handled by 'xfs' , the x font
server.
Get some copy lefted or free TureType fonts, put these in the following
directory:

    /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType

Edit your /etc/X11/fs/config, if the above said directory is not
included in the catalog section.  Restart your xfs server by typing:

  /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs restart

at shall prompt.

And that's it.
