You cannot. Which font exactly will be chosen for an under-specified
pattern such as the above depends on a myriad of factors, including
the server version.
Actually, due to bugs in previous versions of the X server, even if
you choose a fully-specified but not overspecified specification, such
as
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--12-*-75-75-p-*-iso10646-1
the chosen font may under some circumstances depend on the version of
the X server.

Yep. Other Unicode fonts may be TrueTypes or CIDFonts. (We do not
support generating core Unicode fonts from Type 1 or Speedo.)
