Why don't you use something like
(defmacro with-temp-font (font &body body)
   ..store old font
  .. install new font
  (progn <body) at ,>
  .. install old font))

Mitteilung

Hi,
As everyone knows, the command
   set-font stream font-or-font-handle &optional (set-line-height t)
changes the font of a stream. There is always the entire stream whose font
is changed. I want to change just a part of the stream. It seems to me that
there should be a start- and a end-argument in this command. How can I have
a part of the stream in another font?
Thanks a lot for your help
Felix
