I'm not sure.  I usually run Emacs with `emacs -nw' inside xterm
windows.

The Emacs manual has a section on `Fontsets', which may be of
some help.  You can reach this section by typing:

  C-h r m Fontsets RET

If I am reading this section correctly, and you are running Emacs
in X11, you can add something like the following to your
`~/.Xresources' file:

  Emacs*font: fontset-standard

Then you can 'refresh' the X11 resource list by opening a shell
window, and typing:

  bash$ xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources

After this has completed successfully, new Emacs windows will use
the correct fontset.
