Why not use a better font? I started to look into the fonts of Mac OS X = 10.6.8. The first I found is BiauKai; 6.1d3e1; 2008-08-11 from DynaLab = Inc. It is missing some Latin characters to display umlauts and other = accented characters, but it has Latin and Greek characters that seem to = fit into the same box as Chinese ideograms. Similar, with many Japanese = and Korean ideograms, are Hei Regular; 6.1d3e1; 2008-08-11 and Kai = Regular; 6.1d1e1; 2008-08-18, both from Shanghai Ikarus Ltd./URW = Software & Type GmbH. A bit better Heiti TC Light; 7.0d6e1; 2010-03-01 = and Heiti SC Medium; 7.0d6e1; 2010-03-01, both from Changzhou SinoType = Technology Co., Ltd., do appear. They have many accented Latin = characters. There must be more quite complete fonts. You don't need to use pixel based fonts from or for X11. Modern Emacsen = can make use of the TrueType and OpenType font technologies =96 and = these font formats are also supported by the X server resp. = libfontconfig. -- Greetings Pete =3D=3D=3D -Q =3D=3D<__/% >> _____________(_)____@_____________________________
