Just to add a bit to era's excellent distillation of how X11 font work (which I've now bookmarked for when I try and explain it to people thanks!) - the version of xming I use has a really small set of fonts by default, your's might well have the same problem.

There's good news though, you can add additional fonts to xming (like, say, courier-medium and helvetica-medium Smilie)
If you already have those fonts available in windows, you can either tell xming where to find these by editing the font-dirs file.
If they are not on your machine at all, you can either install them into windows, or into xming itself.
There's loads of information on xming fonts here:
Xming - PC X Server - Fonts

GUI 
API(3m17n) The m17n Library GUI API(3m17n) NAME
GUI_API - API provided by libm17n-gui.so. Modules Frame A frame is an object corresponding to the graphic device. Font Font object. Fontset A fontset is an object that maps a character to fonts. Face A face is an object to control appearance of M-text. Drawing Drawing M-texts on a window. Input Method (GUI) Input method support on window systems. Detailed Description API provided by libm17n-gui.so. GUI support for a window system. This section defines the m17n GUI API concerning M-text drawing and inputting under a window system. All the definitions here are independent of window systems. An actual library file, however, can depend on a specific window system. For instance, the library file m17n-X.so is an example of implementation of the m17n GUI API for the X Window System. Actually the GUI API is mainly for toolkit libraries or to implement XOM, not for direct use from application programs.
