Well, I fixed the emacs problem I asked about earlier by specifying a particular font for emacs menus. But the same problem is popping up in other places, including xdvi and xfontsel. In both of these places, all buttons and menus are displayed in a barcode font, making them unusable to anyone without a photographic memory.
Can someone who understands font selection help with what might be happening? This happens only when using truetype fonts via xfstt. When I turn off xfstt, everything works as normal. Oddly enough, it happens only on my office machine; my home machine is happy with xfstt.
