Ubuntu has bitmap fonts disabled by default.

You can enable them as follows:

  cd /etc/fonts/conf.d/
  sudo rm -rf 70-no-bitmaps.conf && sudo ln -s ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf .
  sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig

The Ubuntu wiki[1] has information about how you can be more specific and only enable a selection of fonts, if you desire.
