You cold try the following:
cp <font> <destination>
kfontinst -xgfa <destination>
The kfontinst command will configure regular X (creating fonts.dir, etc),
create an entry in Fontmap (remove the 'g' if this is not required), add the
folder to fontconfig's config file and to X's config file.
If its a TTF, or Type1, font file then some system's mkfontdir will not handle
it.
Craig.
