I attach two screenshots. The fonts which seems to display hebrew correctly in the setting discussed, but is quite ugly is: (defun my-hebrew-emacs-etl-set-240 () (interactive) (set-face-font 'default "-etl-*-*-*-*-*-*-240-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-8")) It seems however that arabic is better displayed with (defun my-hebrew-emacs-dejavu-mono () (interactive) (custom-set-faces '(default ((t (:family "DejaVu Sans Mono" :foundry "unknown" :slant normal :weight normal :height 143 :width normal))))))
