I don't know about automatic matching, especially as not all fonts are in a TrueType derivative, but explicit sizing can be done by commands such as the following I used to get the Khmer script working better: ; Correct the script definition in Emacs 23.1! (set-char-table-range char-script-table (cons ?\u19e0 ?\u19ff) 'khmer) ; Make the Khmer text readable (set-fontset-font t 'khmer (font-spec :name "Khmer OS" :height 20)) Richard.
