I use the default DejaVuSansMono font in emacs, but when I try to do a ps-print-buffer or ps-spool-buffer, it uses the Courier font. Thus the result is disappointing because Courier does not support a lot of unicode characters. I tried to set ps-font-family to "Monospace" or "DejaVuSansMono" which is the default font on my DE (gnome 2.28). But I get the warning "don't have data to scale font Monospace. Known fonts family are (Courier..." The list of known fonts is pretty short and I don't think that any of them supports the whole unicode range. I am a bit clueless about that scaling issue. (this is not an problem related to the printer or system, gedit prints without problem with that font). How can I make emacs use the Monospace font for printing ? Thanks for your help, -- Harven
