Here's something I saved from a post from weeks ago. I haven't actually tried it myself (yet), but it may be of some use to you. "bring over the windows fonts and put them in /var/lib/ttfonts then run xfstt --sync then run xfstt & then just edit XF86Config to include that font server and run X" I guess that the fonts would be "/windows/fonts/*.ttf". Please let me know how you get on with this, as I'll get around to trying it myself soon.
