One thing that haven't been mentioned:
Have you installed any ttf fonts, or do you only have the font packages
in the xorg group? If you haven't installed any extra ttf fonts, then
do so, dejavu, bistream, ms fonts and the freefonts are usually good
choices.

Let us all remember that Arch Linux is not a for-profit company out to make
