Unless you're setting up a font server for use by multiple machines on a
network (and if you don't know you're doing that, then you're probably
not) this is not a problem.  Your local X server will be getting fonts
by talking to the font server on its unix domain socket, or by reading
fonts directly from the file system.

Have you done the "xset -q" thing from that HOWTO, to find out where
your X server expects the fonts to be?
