I don't know how to change the menu font directly (at least I don't
remember) but IIRC a workaround is to change the order of the fonts
paths in XF86Config since they are search in order until an appropriate
font is found.

You should make sure TrueType fonts are on top if they are available
and Type1 fonts are last as they don't render to well to screen.
