What are you trying to accomplish by changing the fonts?
Generally speaking you can specify any font available on the box, so long
as X can find it, since it is an X-default file you are changing.
But results are unpredictable if you choose one very much larger or
smaller than the default.
You can get a list of fonts on AIX using the
/usr/bin/X11/xlsfonts
command, which will both long and short names, and you can use
/usr/bin/X11/xfd -fn <font_name>
to try to get an indication of how they look,but you'll probably still
have to experiment with what you use.
