I am trying to set default font width to something smaller than emacs'
default. I can do it by customizing Basic Faces:Default group and setting
height to e.g. 83pts. However that seems to affect the main frame only.
Other frames that I open, still use emacs' defaults.
I am running 21.3.1 on XP.
Please help.

I don't know what customize is doing, but maybe this will work:


(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 83)

Unfortunately, that didn't help. Is there another way to make default font
smaller?

Thanks
