Default font Inconsolata but guillemets in STIXGeneral


From: Heilmann, Till A.
Subject: Default font Inconsolata but guillemets in STIXGeneral
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2012 16:43:59 +0200

I want to use Emacs 24.1 (9.0) downloaded from http://emacsformacosx.com/ with 
the Inconsolata font in OTF on Mac OS 10.7.4. My ~/.emacs contains only one 
line:

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Inconsolata-16")

The font is mostly displayed correctly in the buffer (see first output of 
describe-char below), except for guillemets (see second output of describe-char 
below). Does anyone have an idea why Emacs uses STIXGeneral instead of 
Inconsolata to display guillemets? BTW, it messes with the line spacing too: 
lines with guillemets have more spacing than others.

Thanks and regards,
Till
