I may be wrong, but I think that with the standard fonts under X it is not very likely that there is a b&h-font that covers the IPA characters. I suggest, that you try something like this, instead: Emacs.Fontset-0: -*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-wangyin,\ chinese-gb2312:-*-simsun-medium-r-normal-*-24-*-gb2312*-*,\ mule-unicode-0100-24ff:-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1 2. It seems that either this setting does not take effect or somewhere in your .emacs or somewhere else the default face is changed to "Adobe-Courier" again. To make sure, please post the output of `M-x describe-face RET default RET' (the signifant line is "Font or fontset: ..."). Did you customize your default font? Or do you--per chance--override the setting you posted in you .Xdefaults again? You could also try to make sure that the settings take effect by invoking "xrdb ~/.Xdefaults" from an xterm and restarting Emacs.
