Hmm... is your emacs using xft or xfs? Run 'ldd /usr/bin/emacs | grep Xft'

What does 'xdpyinfo' show when you run it remotely? It should say the same... anx 84dpi is close enough to 75dpi that it shouldn't be way-to-big.

It appears that xdpyinfo shows the same thing. emacs doesn't appear to be running Xft, as shown. The remote machine is running Red Hat Enterprise, to the best of my knowledge.

Ok, then would you mind trying an xft/fontconfig enabled version of emacs to let me know how if it still is an issue in that case? If you don't have access to one, let me know, and I'll get you an account on one of my linux boxes to test my hunch.


I have only Xft enabled versions of emacs on my remote boxes, and they all look good font-size-wise when connecting from my Leopard box.

Have you run emacs on an X server local to that machine?

This worked fine in Tiger. I don't have access to the console of the remote machine.

Ok, well if my hunch is right, we don't need that. Please try out what I mentioned above and get back to me.
