More information was requested, but none was given within 6 months, so
I'm closing this bug.

I have 2 server side fonts:

  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-120-iso10646-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-ja-13-120-75-75-c-120-iso10646-1

When I run:

  (set-frame-font "-misc-*-*-*-*--13-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")

unfortunately next font selected:

  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-ja-13-120-75-75-c-120-iso10646-1

  /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/12x13ja.pcf.gz

which looks very ugly.
