VNC itself not need any fonts.  VNC handles all in image date.
But Xvnc is a combination of X server and VNC server, and
X server requires fonts to display text glyphs on the display.
I don't know TightVNC details, but normal Xvnc does not support
truetype font.  I suggest to use xfs (font server) as Xvnc's
font path.
