And what happens then? are any characters displayed correctly, or all
of them are displayed as hex codes?

I don't know how vim selects the fonts, but I'm sure it's very
different from what Emacs does.  We need to understand what prevents
Emacs from using this font as you expected.

Anyway, I think it's time to present more details, if you please:

  . does this happen in "emacs -Q"?
  . did you customize your fontsets, and if so, can you show those
    customizations?
  . which codepoints are used for the problematic characters, and
    which characters are those? do they have codepoints in Unicode?
  . can you make the font in question available for download, so we
    could try debugging this in Emacs?
  . assuming the font is installed, can you show a minimal recipe for
    reproducing the problem in "emacs -Q"?

TIA
