Hi

I wanted to install a truetype font( *.ttf ) that i have with me on an
AIX box. Can anyone give me a few pointers about, if this is possible
at all. I tried to google it up, but did not find any good enough
results.

thanks

I don't know nothing about AIX, but I suppose you already have
a TrueType rasterizer, no? Then you install TrueType fonts like
other fonts (bitmap or PostScript). Do you know how to do this?

Put your fonts in, say, $HOME/fonts/TrueType/
together with a suitable  fonts.dir  file.
Add this directory to your fontpath:
  xset fp+ $HOME/fonts/TrueType/
