23.0.94; Availability of unicode glyphs on Win XP |
Date: |
Thu, 11 Jun 2009 08:02:08 +0200 |
I'm using pretest Emacs 23.0.94 on both platforms W2k SP4 and XP SP3. By
,----
| M-x describe-input-method RET rfc1345 RET
`----
I get the full list of RFC1345 mnemonics.
On W2k almost all glyphs (aside from a couple of octal sequences) are
displayed. On XP, however, I get a lot of blank boxes there, just as if
all those glyphs were not included in the font.
Both Emacsen have identical settings and I did not make any changes to
the font variables ('fixed-pitch' points to Family:Monospace).
In GNU Emacs 23.0.94.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195)
of 2009-05-24 on SOFT-MJASON

Thanks for pointing me to "C-u C-x =". This showed me that on my W2k
machine the glyphs were taken from the font »Arial Unicode MS«. This
font was (for some reason which I do not know) available on my W2k
machine but not on the XP machine.
Thanks for confirming that, so we can close the bug.
