Problems installing font

Having recently installed cygwin/XFree, I try to ssh to an HP workstation
(asterix) running Mentor Graphics. The program crashes due to a font error.
I'm able to run an xterm from the same machine, so X is enabled in ssh.
What I need to know is how to procede; what kind of font file should I
obtain, how should I install the fonts on my Cygwin system?
Best regards,
