Can you try a newer Emacs version? 23.2 has been out a while. If you can try trunk also that would be great (see http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/emacs/). Does the situation fix itself if you do C-l or iconify and restore the Emacs frame? Can you put the cursor on one of the characters and do C-c C-x C-= and mail the results? Thanks, Jan D.
