Back-art does not use the regular fonts X11 offers eg. via xfs (the font
server). Instead it uses nfonts. You can get some from

  http://developer.linuxstep.org/downloads/
  http://www.knuddel.org/Downloads/Fonts/
  ftp://ftp.peak.org/next-ftp/next/fonts/index.html

Some information about nfont packages can be found at
