Show us your .emacs file.  It seems you forgot a parenthesis.

In fact I put no parentheses at all.... sorry.
Now I have, and I no longer get that message; but as I try
ps-spool-buffer
I get
BDF file jiskan24.bdf doesn't exist
and no ps output is produced. I installed xfonts, but there's no *.bdf in my system.
Maybe I'd better try and understand how debian get along with this.

Thank you very much,

Guldo

p.s.: sorry for my previous bad habit in posting, it was due to the fact I used hotmail, that gets rid of important tags for list-replying.
Now it should be definitely fixed.

I have that file.  I installed the GNU intlfonts package from
ftp.gnu.org.  It was not a Debian package.

Place them in your ~/.emacs configuration file, which you can open
from Emacs with

C-x C-f ~/.emacs

Don't get too hopeful, by the way, as I am not very sure of my
suggestion...

Please forgive me, but, WHERE am I supposed tu insert those commands? Not in 
the mini-buffer, neither shell........

I'm not entirely sure, but maybe you could (if you haven't already)
get and install the intlfonts package
http://www.gnu.org/directory/localization/intlfonts.html

Then try something like:

(setq ps-multibyte-buffer 'bdf-font-except-latin)

(add-to-list 'bdf-directory-list "/path/to/intlfonts/bdf")

Hello everybody!

Hope this is the right place for my postin'!

I set up emacs to use canna, for writing japanese text. It's fine.
But when I try ps-spool-buffer I get:
Font for some characters not found, continue anyway? (y or n)
and the resulting *.ps lacks jap characters.
So it's a font problem.
How can I fix this?

Thank you all,
