Hello James!

I added Acrobat version of Arial to my installed fonts, and it works ok with 
KCharSelect.
Make sure that you:
1) added directory with these fonts (Arial MT, TNR) to /etc/X11/XftConfig
2) invoked 
#xftcache
after adding fonts

If you still have problem (after doing two stesps above): report your XFree86, 
Qt, KDE versions, and wether you have AA enabled.
