Yes, run "convertfont -b" on the new fonts.  Then run "bldfamily -d" on the
font directory and use xset to either add the directory to the server's idea
of the font path, or if the directory is already in the font path,
"xset fp rehash".

For more details, see Chapter 4 of the V2 X11/NeWS Server Guide plus the
man pages of the commands mentioned.
