Probably your first step is to find out what font is actually being
used. I find the following little function (provided by the nice people on
the list, but I forget exactly who!) invaluable in sorting out font
problems.

;; return the font used to display the character at point in the
;; default face
(defun ffi ()
  (interactive)
  (face-font-instance 'default nil (char-after (point))))
