It might. Check with xfd (or fontforge or ...) that the font contains  
what it claims! The important thing is that you need to make the  
frame with its buffers use that fontset. If it exists just an option,  
then nothing changes for you. And you can also use a different font  
size. Some possible settings:

	(setq initial-frame-alist '(
	  (border-color     . "#4e3832")
	  (foreground-color . "grey10")
	  (background-color . "AliceBlue")
	  (active-alpha     . 0.875)
	  (inactive-alpha   . 0.75)
	  (font . "fontset-10pt_lucidatypewriter")
	  (top . 5) (left . 500) (width . 106) (height . 50)
	  )
	)

There is also default-frame-alist.
