TrueType Fonts
The Asian TrueType fonts for the layered technologies, such as JAVA and
X Window Systems, are installed in the following directories.
The TrueType fonts in the X Window System will be available only
through X Font Server, xfs. Refer to “Remote Font Server Configuration”
to start X Font Server.
Remote Font Server Configuration
On your remote server, prepare a font server to provide font service. Edit
/etc/rc.config.d/xfs on your font server as follows.
RUN_X_FONT_SERVER=1
And set up your local host. The following is an example in a case where
the server provides service at port number 7000 (default):
xset fp+ tcp/server_hostname:7000
xset fp rehash
