Hi Bastien Setting org-column-face did not solve my issues (and in my opinion should be avoided if possible) but helped me to find out that the problem is either set-frame-font too late in my large setup or the use of default-frame-alist even when at the first place. This minimal setup works for all use cases mentioned earlier:
(set-frame-font "DejaVu Sans Mono-12") (add-to-list 'load-path "/f/git/org-mode/lisp/") (require 'org-install) (require 'org) Now I am a bit confused why the above works but not (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(font . "DejaVu Sans Mono-12")) (add-to-list 'load-path "/f/git/org-mode/lisp/") (require 'org-install) (require 'org) because the Emacs info manual mentions default-frame-alist but not set-frame-font.
