    Thank you! Pragmata is a surprisingly difficult type to set, as you say, it often turns into something rather asphyxiating (as my earlier attempt at this theme shows). I think the key is to give it a generous line height to offset the narrow glyphs. Emacs ability to control line height is a bit... well, iffy at best, so I usually resort to manually patching the font using this great script. I can't share my copy due to licensing, but I have it set to 1.4 if you want to recreate it.
