For example: =C4=81 "0101"=20 =C4=AB "012B" =C5=AB "016B" =E1=B8=8F "1E0F" =E1=B8=8D "1E0D" =E1=B9=AF "1E6F" =E1=B9=AD "1E6D" =C7=A7 "01E7" =C4=A1 "0121" =E1=B8=AB "1E2B" It's no problem to display these characters on my Emacs running on Debian with the default-font adobe-courier. However, she is on MS-WinXP and no font containing these characters seems to be available for Emacs on that system. adobe-courier can be downloaded only for quite an amount of money from the Adobe homepage (I really wonder why it's available on a standard Debian system). Does anybody have a tip about a free font containing these characters which nicely plays together with Emacs? I have searched the web for two hours without finding anything.
