[h-e-w] Trouble with fonts

[Jerome BESNARD]

Hi all,

Despite reading the Faq, I seem to be unable to use the 'Andale' font AND to
have italic faces (that I could see why) but even bold faces (I only have the
normal version of the font, used for every face defined...)

I know the fonts exists on my computer (NT4 SP5 I that matters) and that
NTemacs is a bit difficult to configure when it comes to fonts and
fontsets. But whenever I try to do the suggested

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
(setq default-frame-alist
      (append
       '((font . (create-fontset-from-ascii-font
                  "-*-Andale Mono-normal-r-*-*-13-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-2")))
       default-frame-alist))
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

found in the faq, my emacs hangs at startup, making a nice blinking with its
titlebar, nice but annoying, and I have to kill it with my own hands (bloody I
know....).

I also have set the w32-enable-synthesized-fonts to t.

So if anyone has succeded in this, let me know what I have done wrong. For now
I'll go back to 'Courrier' as a font (not bad looking, but too confusing when
it comes to l and 1 in source code...).

Thanks
