You can use any regular true type fonts. For example look in your desktop folder (Start - Settings - Control Panel - Fonts) and you can copy any of those .TTF files to Windows\Fonts folder on the ipaq (click Explore on the desktop activesync after you sync the unit).

1> Install Activesync on the desktop, you can download the latest vesrion from MS;
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync38.mspx
2> Turn your ipaq on, put it in the cradle, make sure the cradle is pluged into the desktop.
3> Activesync on the desktop will start, you can choose guest partnership. On the Activesync window on the desktop click explore button on the toolbar(2nd button from the right), a window will popup, double click on My Pocket PC, you should see folder listing similar to desktop folders, double click on Windows folder, you will see Fonts folder undeneath.
4> You can now copy and paste .TTF files the same way as you usually do on the desktop.
