You can also explicitly tell it about your font, by creating a file
~/.mlterm/font with a line like this:

ISO10646_UCS2_1 =
20,-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-arabeyes-1;

(one line)

and a file ~/.mlterm/main with this:

ENCODING = utf8
fontsize = 20

and that way you don't have to pass those arguments when running mlterm.
