terminator not showing .pcf or .bdf fonts?

  Monospaced bitmap fonts for X11, good for terminal use.

so i'm experimenting with linux a bit before i eventually end up switching over to it sometime in the future, so i installed arch on a VM to look around. I installed terminator as my terminal of choice (or the choice of a guide i was watching), and wanted to mess around with fonts, eventually stumbling on bitmap fonts. I decided to install a repo of them here , and followed the terminal commands they showed exactly. from what i can tell all of the fonts are correctly installed because i can see them using fc-list. Upon going into the terminator preference menu, it appears none of the fonts are visible, which i can only assume to be caused by the fact that all of the fonts are .pcf or .bdf, instead of something like .ttf or .otf, which i appear to be able to install. Is there some way to enable these fonts inside of the menu, or is there a way to convert them to a usable format? I dont really have a problem switching terminals or the like if that ends up fixing it since im not necessarily attached to this one yet. TIA.
