AFAIK the default org export does not do any font selection (either
of free or non-free fonts).  So it should work just fine.

Obviously it does not for you, though.  It would be helpful if you could
send an example of an org document (it can be short/meaningless, as long
as it demonstrates the problem), the latex it produces on export, and
the latex compiler log file, so that we can see the error.  Looking at
that, we will probably be able to diagnose your problem more precisely,
and figure out what needs to be changed to make it work.

Thanks,
