I want to use Emacs 24.1 (9.0) downloaded from http://emacsformacosx.com/ with the Inconsolata font in OTF on Mac OS 10.7.4. My ~/.emacs contains only one line:

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Inconsolata-16")

The font is mostly displayed correctly in the buffer (see first output of describe-char below), except for guillemets (see second output of describe-char below). Does anyone have an idea why Emacs uses STIXGeneral instead of Inconsolata to display guillemets? BTW, it messes with the line spacing too: lines with guillemets have more spacing than others.

Thanks and regards,
Till
