I used describe-char to identify the immediate cause - Emacs was using the barely readable 'handwritten' font Purisa instead of the usual default, Kinnari. I've fixed the problem for many purposes by simply adding the line (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" 'thai "Kinnari") ;; Def. not Purisa to my .emacs. However, this command looks as though it may not work well with font-locking, which may select other font sets. Is there some other method I should use? I need to specify a font for other character ranges, so I currently have: (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" '(#x1a20 . #x1aad) "Da Lekh") (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" '(#x13000 . #x1342f) "NewGardiner") (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" 'thai "Kinnari") ;; Def. not Purisa Richard.
