Yes, when I tied it, I had it in exactly the same way as you are giving it 
above. (Sorry, when I described the steps in the email, I copied and pasted 
it from the email [macemacsjp-english 764] and missed to be careful for 
the splits.)

And my question is, in which file do you put the above statement? If I put 
it in .emacs, I get the following:
"An error has occurred while loading `/Users/rosi/.emacs':

Symbol's function definition is void: fixed-width-set-default-fontset"

I tried it also in the file:
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp/mac/carbon-font.el
by placing it about the end of the file, just before the comment
;;; carbon-font.el ends here

If you remember I would appreciate it: it is somewhat irritating that all 
you got it, while I can't.
