I setup true type fonts with XFS and the script from this site:

http://gongolo.usr.dsi.unimi.it/~vigna/webFonts4Linux/

The script will go out and automatically grab the true type fonts and
install them to your machine/ Then it will add the proper line to your
font path.

No need to do anything funny with Open Office or Star Office to get this
working. The fonts in Open Office are perfect and they are anti-aliased.

Make sure you set the config file for XFS to allow connections from
addresses other than localhost and up the default connection amount (it is
set to 10).
