However I have also the ttf font Guttman Yad-Brush, which is a handwritten based hebrew font, without really ASCII support. So when I use (set-face-font 'default "Guttman Yad-Brush") then this font is activated, Hebrew chars are displayed correctly but all other ASCII symbols save numbers are not (I see empty boxes instead) *However* when I want my standard courier font back via (set-face-font 'default "-*-courier-bold-r-*-*-18-180-*-*-*-*-*-*") Then this does not work, the empty boxes remain. Is this a bug? Uwe Brauer
