This has historic reasons. Actually the fonts were built for GNU Emacs  
20. They come in as BDF files, with use only for X clients. Since they  
are pixel fonts they cannot be anti-aliased. And you can't use them  
for printing, except, maybe, for a (graphical) screen-dump.

Unicode encoded TrueType and OpenType fonts are the way, made  
available via (lib)fontconfig (fc-cache, fc-list, fc-match).
