Yes. Take for example left and right German double quotes (which
are alternative interpretations of x201e and x201c):
character: „ (8222, #o20036, #x201e)
preferred charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point: 0x201E
syntax: . which means: punctuation
to input: type "\glqq" or "\"`" with TeX
buffer code: #xE2 #x80 #x9E
file code: #xE2 #x80 #x9E (encoded by coding system utf-8-emacs-unix)
display: by this font (glyph code)
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 (#x68F)
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: DOUBLE LOW-9 QUOTATION MARK
general-category: Ps (Punctuation, Open)
old-name: LOW DOUBLE COMMA QUOTATION MARK
versus
character: “ (8220, #o20034, #x201c)
preferred charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point: 0x201C
syntax: . which means: punctuation
category: c:Chinese h:Korean j:Japanese
to input: type "\grqq" or "\ldq" or "\"'" with TeX
buffer code: #xE2 #x80 #x9C
file code: #xE2 #x80 #x9C (encoded by coding system utf-8-emacs-unix)
display: by this font (glyph code)
xft:-unknown-Kochi Gothic-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1 (#x26C)
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK
general-category: Pi (Punctuation, Initial quote)
old-name: DOUBLE TURNED COMMA QUOTATION MARK
While the first one is displayed correctly, the second one has no
anti-aliasing and is too wide. I see the "category" item in the
second character. Maybe this is the cause of this trouble?
Tschö,
Torsten.
