Try to extend the fontset(s) you use with something like this: (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" (cons (decode-char 'ucs #x2000) (decode-char 'ucs #x206f)) = '("dejavu sans" . =20 "iso10646-1")) ; General Punctuation Before you do so (for every fontset and each of its sizes) you should =20= check which fonts have the characters you see as boxes. You are not =20 restricted to iso10646-1 encoded fonts, you could also use CJK fonts, =20= they just need to provide these glyphs. To determine their Unicode =20 value, position the mouse cursor on each of them and type: C-u C-x =3D You don't need to specify a whole Unicode character block, you can =20 use an arbitrary range or even just one code point you want to specify. -- Greetings Pete Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to =20 build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying =20= to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning. =96 Rich Cook
