Have you submitted a bug report? Looking at the source code, it might be useful to `M-x debug-on-entry RET ps-mule-show-warning RET' and report what `e unprintable-charsets RET' shows when invoked in the *Backtrace* buffer. Also, that error message includes 4 characters that are outside ISO 8859-x: 0x80 (twice), 0x8A, and 0x9A.

Or in Arabic or Hebrew? I don't know, but I suspect it is hard to do for all the platforms that Emacs supports. > I'd look forward to Unicode Emacs 23. You'd be looking very far forward. -- Kevin Rodgers
