I use the Misc-Fixed
fonts because I enjoy non-antialiased fonts. They are designed per height, and tolerate shrinking badly. For instance, in the following example, the default font is set to 9x15
and the face used for the sub and superscript just indicates (:height 0.8)
:
—To be honest, I'm not even sure what Emacs is doing here, as it ends up using a serifed font.
Question: How can I make my fonts great again? Many other faces are defined using an height
setting; I'd like to map, e.g., an height of 0.8
to the font 8x13
, an height of 0.6
to 7x13
, etc…

font that could be resized—resizing happens rarely enough that I could tolerate anti-aliasing there—but it has to be designed so that it is not scaled at the size I need it most. – Michaël Nov 16 '16 at 15:00
