When I try to invoke emacs like this: emacs --font "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-8" I get the error: Font `Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-8' is not defined What is the proper way to get emacs23 using this font (which is installed). Preferably, I would like to make this permanent and not have to invoke emacs in such a way each time. Thanks for your response!
