It looks like all boxes. 2. emacs-Ctl-h-H.png This is screen shot of what emacs shows after Ctl-h-H command. As you can see, the South Asian language shows up in boxes, also 'Hindi' and 'Kannada' Also (maybe outside of the image) Tamil and Telugu - all South Asian languages. You asked what font - when I do menu Options/Set Default Font, it shows as Courier New. I have tried changing to Arial, Lucida Sans Unicode, Consolas with no improvement. Note: I thought maybe this is due to a deficiency in the fonts in Windows 10. However, When I open the file in Notepad, the Devanagari displays just fine; Notepad shows that it is using Consolas Font. Note2: Also, I have a Windows Vista system and this displays fine in the same Emacs 23 on that system. Note3: ALso, I tried Emacs 24 on Windows 10, and the same problem occurs. So, As of now, it seems like there is a bug in displaying South Asian Unicode text in Emacs on Windows 10. THanks for looking at it. Let me know if I can do anything more to help the issue to get resolved.
