I configured XTerm and Emacs to use the same font with same size as follows:
in .Xresources: XTerm*faceName: xft:monospace:pixelsize=16 XTerm*faceNameDoublesize: fzsongti Emacs.Font: monospace:pixelsize=16 in .emacs: (when window-system (set-fontset-font (frame-parameter nil 'font) 'han '("FZSongTi" . "unicode-bmp"))) And then I compared Chinese characters in 'emacs -nw' running in xterm and emacs running in X11. It turns out Chinese characters are substantially smaller in Emacs running in X11. However, C-u C-x = shows that the characters have pixelsize 16. Is this a bug? Here is an example: character: 大 (22823, #o54447, #x5927) preferred charset: chinese-gb2312 (GB2312 Chinese simplified: ISO-IR-58) code point: 0x3473 syntax: w which means: word category: C:Chinese (Han) characters of 2-byte character sets c:Chinese h:Korean j:Japanese |:While filling, we can break a line at this character. buffer code: #xE5 #xA4 #xA7 file code: #xB4 #xF3 (encoded by coding system chinese-iso-8bit-unix) display: by this font (glyph code) fzsongti:pixelsize=16:foundry=unknown:weight=medium:slant=r:width=normal (#x29B3) HTH, -- Leo <sdl.web AT gmail.com> (GPG Key: 9283AA3F) _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
