comment my code, i wander how i can set the width of a Chinese character as
two english letter?

Use Markus Kuhn's fine font <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/>

I build my own bdf font so that it works on all OS.

Here's how I build the font:

and that's my emacs font setup:

Hope it help,

I think this should be the standard behaviour.

The not "beautifully aligned" behaviour is probably because you have a
mix of chinese characters and alphabets, numbers, punctuations or other
single byte ascii characters.
