Subject: japanese vs. chinese fonts
Date: Thu, 02 Oct 2008 14:38:44 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <buohc7v1rq3.fsf@dhapc248.dev.necel.com> (raw)

When I enter Japanese in emacs, it now uses a Chinese font to display
the characters!

Even though:

  (1) I used the "japanese" input method

  (2) My language-environment is "Japanese"

  (3) I have Japanese ttf fonts installed on my system, which fontconfig
      knows about, and which used to be used by emacs.

  (4) Emacs _used_ to do the right thing (displaying Japanese text using
      Japanese fonts).

What should I do to debug this?


Here's an example of a mis-displayed character (I don't know how this
will display on other people's systems, but note the font name).

        character: ^[$B2=^[(B (21270, #o51426, #x5316)
preferred charset: japanese-jisx0208
		   (JISX0208.1983/1990 Japanese Kanji: ISO-IR-87)
       code point: 0x323D
           syntax: w 	which means: word
         category: C:Chinese (Han) characters of 2-byte character sets
		   c:Chinese h:Korean j:Japanese
		   |:While filling, we can break a line at this character.
      buffer code: #xE5 #x8C #x96
        file code: #xE5 #x8C #x96 (encoded by coding system utf-8)
          display: by this font (glyph code)
    xft:-unknown-^[$BJ8@tqc@5^[$A:Z^[(B-normal-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1 (#xDCA)


Thanks,

-Miles
