Hi,
I am trying draw rectangle today in Emacs with artist mode. It looks
weird, see following screenshot.

But if I open this text file with chromium browser instead of emacs, it
looks normally. I guess the way that Emacs render this rectangle has a bug.

My OS is archlinux, Emacs version is 24.5.1. My laptop is Dell XPS 13 and
display resolution is 1920 * 1080.

for 1 question,
I use M-x describe-font, press Enter after mini buffer shows: Font
name(default current choice for ASCII chars).
Get the following info:
name (opened by):
-DAMA-Ubuntu-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1
full name:
Ubuntu:pixelsize=17:foundry=DAMA:weight=normal:slant=normal:width=normal:scalable=true
size: 17
height: 19
baseline-offset: 0
relative-compose: 0
Also try to evaluate the expression in eshell, get the same result.
~ $ (face-attribute 'default :font)
#<font-object "-DAMA-Ubuntu-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1">
for 2 question, please see the following screenshot, after C-u C-x RET,
mini buffer shows C-u C-x RET-

I think the problem is that your default font is a proportional one.
You should use a fixed-pitch font when you work with artist mode.

Should artist-mode perhaps error out if the default font is a
proportional font?

Not sure about erroring out, but a warning might be a good idea.
