  This question is addressed in at least one LDP HowTo that I know of:
http://www.nexttime.com/LDP/HOWTO/mini/FDU/index.html
  and probably:
http://www.nexttime.com/LDP/HOWTO/Font-HOWTO.html

   The simple answer is usually to specify your display's resolution in
DPI so that the server picks the right fonts. (Section 2.2 of the
FDU-HowTo) I'm pretty sure XFree 4.x can figure this out by itself,
though.
   Other than that, it probably depends on your WM and desktop
environment.
