There are two useful programs that tell about fonts, in all X
distributions: "xlsfonts" and "xfontsel". You get check if a 
font is bitmapped or not, by starting xfontsel, selecting
the font and zooming it large. If it looks ugly, its bitmapped,
otherwise its outline font. Well, this isn't very elegant or
foolproof way to check it, but nothing better easy comes to my mind.
