I am not loading fonts using the font path in XF86Config. I am using the xfontserver. I have installed webfonts and freefonts and added these to the font server config, and restarted X. Before I did this, I could not use TTF fonts (such as arial) in any applications. After doing this, they work fine in Netscape and Mozilla.
