These lines are missing from the fontset on the machine that won't display Latin-4 characters. But on all machines, when I run M-x describe-fontset, I read that the frame is using a font and not a fontset. > > > Is it possible that the "functions unify-8859-on-encoding-mode and > > unify-8859-on-decoding-mode to turn on conversion between UTF-8 and > > ISO-8859" (from your answer to the Cyrillic font problem) could be part of > > the solution? > > Only if you want Emacs to decode UTF-8 macroned characters as Latin-4. > > > I assume that the entry: > > [-outline-Courier New-normal-r-normal-normal-13-97-96-96-c-80-iso8859-4] > > > > is the only one relevant to my immediate purposes. > > Right. I still think that the parameters for the fontsets have to be stored somewhere. What does M-x describe-fontset read? I read somewhere that I could see extended characters by appending to default-frame-alist but in the "good" emacs installation I read: default-frame-alist's value is ((tool-bar-lines . 0) (menu-bar-lines . 1)) Since I messed up one of the machines I have 2 fontsets called fonset-default with different settings. This leads me to believe that the (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec) function adds the definitions to a list somewhere.
