I should have said that I used the string produced by describe-font:
name (opened by):
-outline-Topaz-8-normal-normal-normal-mono-9-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1
full name: Topaz-8-7.0
size: 9
height: 9
baseline-offset: 0
relative-compose: 0
and put into .emacs :
(set-default-font
"-outline-Topaz-8-normal-normal-normal-mono-9-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1")
But when I open .emacs now I get the error:
error: Invalid font name,
-outline-Topaz-8-normal-normal-normal-mono-9-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1
