Is it a possible to install courier font of 21,22,23?
Is it possible to install new fonts ?

Do you mean with 20, 24, 21, 22, 23 font size??

Ther are no separately fonts for individual font size. You have to
select your favorite font and than define the font size in the
font definition string. I use for example the Envy R font with
font size 13 so the font definition strgin in my .emacs look like this:
"-outline-Envy Code R-normal-r-normal-normal-13-*-96-96-c-*-iso8859-1"

Thanks for the reply
yes,I meant the font size,
I looked in all the font available in my emacs ( completion of set-
default-font).
I am sure there is an option to install/add new fonts ,but i dont know
how.

The X server can scale a font. Check with xfontsel one particular  
font, copy its name, paste it into a shell in GNU Emacs, change the  
font size to one xfontsel does not display, and use xfd to display  
the font at the new size.
