Others will probably have better solutions for you, but here is a
setup similar to the one that I use:

- Add this statement to your .emacs to use 6x13 for ASCII and Latin-1:

  (let ((fontset (create-fontset-from-ascii-font "-*-6x13-*-*")))
    (set-fontset-font fontset 'latin-iso8859-1 "-*-6x13-*-*")
    (set-default-font fontset))

- Optionally, in the registry key
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GNU\Emacs (or
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\Emacs) add a string value
  "Emacs.font" with the value "-*-6x13-*-*".  This makes Emacs
  basically aware of the font setting even before it evaluates .emacs.
  So the first frame is created with the right font from the start.


Hope this helps, benny
