* problems with ttf fonts (hebrew), can go back to courier font. @ 2014-09-23 12:07 Uwe Brauer 2014-09-23 16:47 ` Glenn Morris 2014-09-26 12:27 ` K. Handa 0 siblings, 2 replies; 5+ messages in thread From: Uwe Brauer @ 2014-09-23 12:07 UTC (permalink / raw) To: emacs-devel Hello Using GNU Emacs 24.3, I usually use (set-face-font 'default "-etl-*-bold-*-*-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-8") for hebrew. However I have also the ttf font Guttman Yad-Brush, which is a handwritten based hebrew font, without really ASCII support. So when I use (set-face-font 'default "Guttman Yad-Brush") then this font is activated, Hebrew chars are displayed correctly but all other ASCII symbols save numbers are not (I see empty boxes instead) *However* when I want my standard courier font back via (set-face-font 'default "-*-courier-bold-r-*-*-18-180-*-*-*-*-*-*") Then this does not work, the empty boxes remain. Is this a bug? Uwe Brauer ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

Next time you think you may have found a bug, make a bug report. The development list is not the bug reporting list, and asking "is this a bug" first doesn't save anyone any work. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

I asked whether it is a bug or a missing feature, in which case a bug report does not make much sense and whether it is a missing feature or a bug, I presume, can be best answered in the development list.[1] Footnotes: [1] I googled around before asking but did not find a clear answer. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

It seems to be a bug.
