f = fx.LoadFont(File.DirAssets,"alpha.ttf",12)

Sub bttest_Click
    Log(f.FamilyName) 'Chess Alpha
    
    bttest.Font = f
    bttest.Text = "azertyui"
    

    lb.Font = f
    'lb.TextSize = 10

Tested Horse White using snippet:

Private AlphaFont As Font
Private Label_Horse_White As Label

'Ensure to copy the file alpha.ttf to the dirassets (=Files) folder of the project.
AlphaFont = fx.LoadFont(File.DirAssets, "alpha.ttf", 48)
Label_Horse_White.Font = AlphaFont
Label_Horse_White.Text = "H"

It looks like the font file may be corrupted (or not compatible with java) in some way, I couldn't find a validator so I downloaded a different version of the file from here: https://fonts2u.com/chess-alpha.font which works here.
