Problem is that proportional fonts don't display well in Japanese for ex. I've tried the default settings for a number of emacs- carbon versions and I always end up putting a monospace font for _everything_ because the display of Japanese is positively ugly in proportional.

Is it like that in other apps as well?

You mean not-emacs ?

No, it is not. At least not on "more" Mac apps.

I remember when I first tried Aquamacs, I had the same problem and I managed to fix it by using osaka as the default font (which then affects the display of French characters, but it is less bad than for Japanese ones).

I suppose I was forgetting I had the issue when I returned to emacs a few weeks ago, because I was expecting that monaco would affect the japanese font too -> monaco being monospace, I thought that would call a monospace font for Japanese. But that was not the case. So I had to manually change to Osaka to get a proper result.
