Yes, thanks, that worked!
Is it possible to also apply this to characters such as », ·, ¢? They seem to
have a similar problem, and they're all within the 128..255 code point range.
I've tried:
(set-fontset-font "fontset-default" '(128 . 255)
"-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1")
..but that seems to have no effect.
I've discovered M-x describe-char, and for ¢ (the cent symbol) it shows:
position: 1669 of 2588 (64%), column: 0
character: ¢ (displayed as ¢) (codepoint 162, #o242, #xa2)
preferred charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point in charset: 0xA2
script: latin
syntax: _ which means: symbol
category: .:Base, j:Japanese, l:Latin
to input: type "C-x 8 RET HEX-CODEPOINT" or "C-x 8 RET NAME"
buffer code: #xC2 #xA2
file code: #xC2 #xA2 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
display: by this font (glyph code)
xft:-Misc-Fixed-normal-normal-normal-ja-13-*-*-*-c-120-iso10646-1 (#x63)
Even though "preferred charset" is "unicode", it seems to prefer using a
Japanese font for this symbol oddly enough.
