Their foundry is "[Mm]isc" (not = determined, could be X Consortium/X.Org), their family name is the same: = "[Ff]ixed". Their weight is also the same, normal is medium. What makes = a difference is the value of "ja" (for Japanese) in the field for = additional typographic styles. This makes sense in combination with the = ISO 10646-1 (or Unicode) font encoding. It is possible that this = setting, "ja", reserves a bit too big cells for the characters, cells = into which Japanese could fit (which a bit bigger than those for Latin = scripts). The setting for average width (120 vs. 80, i.e. wide vs. = compact) confirms this. GNU Emacs 24.x seems to love Japanese=85 -- Greetings Pete (: _ / __ - - _/ \__/_/ - - (=B4`) (=B4`) - - `=B4 `=B4
