    123 The intlfonts distribution contains X11 fonts that Emacs needs in 
    124 order to display international characters.  If you see a non-ASCII 
    125 character appear as a hollow box, that means you don't have a font for 
    126 it.  You might find a font in the intlfonts distribution.  If you do 
    127 have a font for a non-ASCII character, but some characters don't look 
    128 right, or appear improperly aligned, a font from the intlfonts 
    129 distribution might look better. 
     123The intlfonts distribution contains X11 fonts in various encodings 
     124that Emacs may need to display international characters.  If you see a 
     125non-ASCII character appear as a hollow box, that means you don't have 
     126a font for it.  You might find one in the intlfonts distribution.  If 
     127you do have a font for a non-ASCII character, but some characters 
     128don't look right, or appear improperly aligned, a font from the 
     129intlfonts distribution might look better.

    131131The fonts in the intlfonts distribution are also used by the ps-print

    207207To take proper advantage of Emacs 21's mule-unicode charsets, you need 
    208 a Unicode font.  For information on Unicode fonts for X, see 
    209 <URL:http://czyborra.com/unifont/>, 
    210 <URL:http://openlab.ring.gr.jp/efont/> and

     208a Unicode font.  For `Unicode' (ISO 10646) fonts for X, see

    215216XFree86 release 4 (from <URL:ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/> and mirrors) 
    216217contains font support for most, if not all, of the charsets that Emacs 
    217 supports.  The font files should be usable separately with older X 
    218 releases. 
     218currently supports, including iso10646-1 encoded fonts for use with 
     219the mule-unicode charsets.  The font files should also be usable with 
     220older X releases.  Note that XFree 4 contains many iso10646-1 fonts 
     221with minimal character repertoires, which can cause problems -- see 
     222etc/PROBLEMS.
