> Did you give the full path to the directory?

yes, 'xset fp+ /home/user/Desktop/Fonts'.

> Are there any errors in the log?

yes, here's the log snippet:

xset:  bad font path element (#7), possible causes are:
     Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
     Directory missing fonts.dir
     Incorrect font server address or syntax

Regards,

atar.
