Hi, there.
I copied monaco font to /usr/share/fonts/monaco/, and mkfontdir, mkfontscale. I can select Monaco font in Plasma Preferrence.
but in emacs, I write the following in .emacs:
Code:

(set-frame-font "Mocano 18" nil t)
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(font . "Monaco 18"))

when I eval-buffer, emacs indicates that font is not available.
Neither monaco nor other system font can not be found by emacs.
I reemerged emacs with USE gsettings, and still emacs can not find system font.
I have font DejaVu Sans Mono in system. When I use the command 'emacs --font "DejaVu Sans Mono 18" ' to start emacs, the output is 'font is not defined'.
when I fc-list, there is a long list of font name, and that is what saw in plasma font management.
but when I xlsfonts, the output is:
Code:

-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--0-0-75-75-c-0-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-100-100-100-c-60-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
6x13
cursor
fixed

that is what emacs is using.
Could anyone help me? Thanks!
