What do you mean "using"? You can get individual strings of your choice
in a 
single font using a TTSampleStringMorph; to use TT fonts in text windows 
requires conversion to a FormSetFont or StrikeFont. I posted some fixes
for 
this purpose on the list. See 
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/26604 for these fixes.

You can search the egroups list for discussions about Truetype:
