Specifying Fonts on the Mac
It is rare that you need to specify a font name in Emacs; usually
you specify face attributes instead. But when you do need to specify
a font name in Emacs on the Mac, use a standard X font name:
-maker-family-weight-slant-widthtype-style...
...-pixels-height-horiz-vert-spacing-width-charset
See Font X. Wildcards are supported as they are on X.
Native Apple fonts in Mac Roman encoding has maker name apple
and charset mac-roman. For example 12-point Monaco can be
specified by the name -apple-monaco-*-12-*-mac-roman.
Native Apple Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and
Korean fonts have charsets big5-0, gb2312.1980-0,
jisx0208.1983-sjis, and ksc5601.1989-0, respectively.
Single-byte fonts converted from GNU fonts in BDF format, which are not
in the Mac Roman encoding, have foundry, family, and character sets
encoded in the names of their font suitcases. E.g., the font suitcase
ETL-Fixed-ISO8859-1 contains fonts which can be referred to by
the name -ETL-fixed-*-iso8859-1.
