/opt/ltsp../fonts/truetype is wrong path because all services
and applications (except X for the client) are running on in LTSP server. 

If you are using Debian GNU/Linux 
1. Install msttcorefonts (apt-get install msttcoreffonts
        This will downloads and install ttf fonts from the net
        or copy some ttf fonts to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/)

2. install xfstt (apt-get install xfstt)
3.  run /etc/init.d/xfstt restart
4.  Modify /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and add the line
        FontPath "unix/:7101"
5.  Restart X
