Make it known to your X11 fonts sub-system (that's what an  
"installed" should express) and then set either an X resource à la:

	Emacs.Font:     -*-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-*-*-10-*-*-*-m-*- 
iso10646-1

(you can additionally use, for example:

Emacs*menu*.font:       -*-utopia-bold-r-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1
Emacs*pane.menubar.font:        -*-lucida-bold-r-*-sans-10-*-*-*-*-*- 
iso10646-1
Emacs.dialog*.font:     -*-bitstream vera serif-bold-r-*-*-10-*-*-*-*- 
*-iso10646-1)

or you put your default font choice into, for example:

  (setq initial-frame-alist '(
        (tool-bar-lines         . 0)
        (menu-bar-lines         . 2)
        (border-color           . "gold1")
        (cursor-color           . "turquoise1")
        (mouse-color            . "purple3")
        (foreground-color       . "DarkCyan")
        (background-color       . "antiquewhite1")
        (vertical-scroll-bars   . right)
        (internal-border-width  . 5)
        (top  . 10) (left . 625) (width . 80) (height . 50)
;•      (font . "fontset-global")
        ))

– and there's also default-frame-alist!
