Do I have to set this in my personal.ini ?

You've bumped into several semi-related issues.
First, the handling for Publisher and Language(s) for Anthologies was broken in similar, but slightly different ways. They are fixed now, but be aware that 'Publisher' isn't one of the available FFF metadata entries for custom columns; use
site instead.
Second, anthology books, because they can contain books from different sites,
don't use the site specific personal.ini sections. So if your custom columns settings are in a site section, they won't be used for the anthology. That's the most probable explanation for the
characters part of your issue.
Third is more of a warning:
site and
language for an anthology are lists instead of individual values. If you set them to a custom column that isn't a "comma separated values list" type, you may well end up with duplicates because FFF doesn't try to de-dup or order at the anthology level.
