I have encountererd something quite bizzare: italic fonts tend to be
larger than the normal ones: if i set:
Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
italics are larger than 160. if i set it to 100, italics are still larger
even then 120.
I'm not sure why this is happening. Are you sure that you have italic
courier fonts in 120?
Anyway, you may get a better result with the following in your .emacs:
(setq *try-oblique-before-italic-fonts* t)
If i set:
Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
all goes fine, till i use info: the info node face, whice is bold italic,
goes again larger than should be... :(
But that is not solving your problem really, since you are just losing
the italic font altogether (by making it regular).
If the previous hint doesn't work, try this, instead:
Emacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-o-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.bold.attributeFont: -*-courier-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.bold-italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-bold-o-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
Of course, if you don't have these fonts, then that's what XEmacs is
really having a problem with.
