Since this is Windows 98, the default fonts for the US version are Latin-1 only. There is another set of default fonts, which used to be available from the MS website, and is also installed by various MS software packages. This set supports many more encodings. If you do not look closely, it may appear that the fonts are the same on both machines, but in the font selection dialog, you have a "Script" dropdown selection, which will be different on the machines that work compared to the one that doesn't. > I still think that the parameters for the fontsets have to be stored > somewhere.

Emacs 21 displays all characters regardless of whether you use a font or a fontset. The fontset gives you finer control over which fonts are used to display which characters. > Since I messed up one of the machines I have 2 fontsets called > fonset-default with different settings.

There is nothing magic going on behind the scenes.
