* bug#64618: 29.0.92; Can't set Fira code font with italic type on Windows system @ 2023-07-14 15:36 Eason Huang 2023-07-14 16:09 ` Eli Zaretskii 0 siblings, 1 reply; 6+ messages in thread From: Eason Huang @ 2023-07-14 15:36 UTC (permalink / raw) To: 64618 Hi Emacs, Currently I tried to use Fira Code font on Windows 10, but the italic font can not use on Emacs 29 and Emacs 30, it rolls back to regular font. This only happends on Windows platform. It works as expected on macOS. Does anyone known how to make it works? You can downlaod and install Fira Code from this link: https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode/releases/download/6.2/Fira_Code_v6.2.zip steps to reproduce: 1. Unzip the Fira_Code_v6.2.zip and install Fira Code fonts in ttf folder 2. Start Emacs with `emacs -Q` 3. From the Menu, choose Options -> Set Default Font... 4. From the popup window, select Fira Code font with italic type Now you will see that the font of current buffer have been changed to Fira Code with Regular font type. It should be the italic font type. But When I tried the Cascadia Mono font, it works as expected. If you want install Cascadia Mono, you can download it from this link: https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code/releases/download/v2111.01/CascadiaCode-2111.01.zip -- Eason Huang In GNU Emacs 29.0.92 (build 1, x86_64-w64-mingw32) of 2023-06-20 built on AVALON Windowing system distributor 'Microsoft Corp.', version 10.0.19045 System Description: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro (v10.0.2009.19045.3086) Configured using: 'configure --with-modules --without-dbus --with-native-compilation=aot --without-compress-install --with-tree-sitter CFLAGS=-O2' Configured features: ACL GIF GMP GNUTLS HARFBUZZ JPEG JSON LCMS2 LIBXML2 MODULES NATIVE_COMP NOTIFY W32NOTIFY PDUMPER PNG RSVG SOUND SQLITE3 THREADS TIFF TOOLKIT_SCROLL_BARS TREE_SITTER WEBP XPM ZLIB Important settings: value of $LC_CTYPE: zh_CN.UTF-8 value of $LANG: zh_CN.UTF-8 locale-coding-system: cp936 Major mode: ELisp/l Minor modes in effect: tooltip-mode: t global-eldoc-mode: t eldoc-mode: t show-paren-mode: t electric-indent-mode: t mouse-wheel-mode: t tool-bar-mode: t menu-bar-mode: t file-name-shadow-mode: t global-font-lock-mode: t font-lock-mode: t blink-cursor-mode: t line-number-mode: t transient-mark-mode: t auto-composition-mode: t auto-encryption-mode: t auto-compression-mode: t Load-path shadows: None found.

But with other applications such as MS Word and Notepad3, Fira Code can show italic style. Meawhile, Emacs 29 on macOS can Show italic with the same Fira Code font. I tried below font setting on both Windows and macOS: ``` (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist (cons 'font "Fira Code-13")) ``` After Emacs start up, put your cursor on an character and execute `M-x describe-char`, and shows result as below: ``` macOS: position: 4 of 43 (7%), column: 3 character: H (displayed as H) (codepoint 72, #o110, #x48) charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV)) code point in charset: 0x48 script: latin syntax: w which means: word category: .:Base, L:Strong L2R, a:ASCII, l:Latin, r:Roman to input: type "C-x 8 RET 48" or "C-x 8 RET LATIN CAPITAL LETTER H" buffer code: #x48 file code: #x48 (encoded by coding system utf-8) display: by this font (glyph code): mac-ct:-*-Fira Code-regular-italic-normal-*-13-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 (#x28) Character code properties: customize what to show name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER H general-category: Lu (Letter, Uppercase) decomposition: (72) ('H') There are text properties here: face font-lock-comment-face fontified nil ws-butler-chg chg Windows: position: 4 of 39 (8%), column: 3 character: H (displayed as H) (codepoint 72, #o110, #x48) charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV)) code point in charset: 0x48 script: latin syntax: w which means: word category: .:Base, L:Strong L2R, a:ASCII, l:Latin, r:Roman to input: type "C-x 8 RET 48" or "C-x 8 RET LATIN CAPITAL LETTER H" buffer code: #x48 file code: #x48 (encoded by coding system utf-8) display: by this font (glyph code): harfbuzz:-outline-Fira Code-regular-normal-normal-*-18-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 (#x28) Character code properties: customize what to show name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER H general-category: Lu (Letter, Uppercase) decomposition: (72) ('H') There are text properties here: face font-lock-comment-face fontified nil ws-butler-chg chg ``` And you can see that there do have the italic font `-*-Fira Code-regular-italic-normal-*-13-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1` on macOS Emacs, but don't have on Windows. Is it possible to make the Emacs on Windows have the same ability as the Emacs on macOS for showing this kind of font without italic variant? -- Eason Huang ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

No, not as far as I understand the mechanism Emacs uses fonts on Windows. Sorry. How about asking the font developers to provide an explicit italic variant in the zip file, just for Emacs on Windows? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
