This is an issue with fonts/symbol.ttf, which ubuntu uses to create the ttf-symbol-replacement package.

It's easy to see in native evince with: wget http://www.fairchildsemi.com/ds/CD%2FCD4066BC.pdf sudo apt-get install ttf-symbol-replacement evince CD_CD4066BC.pdf there are comparison screenshots on launchpad: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51948181/screenshot-OK.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51948191/screenshot-wrong.png I tried with a windows version of evince, but it doesn't have the problem (though it does crash because of missing helvetica). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I was able to "repair" it with fontforge with the following steps: *) open symbol.ttf *) Encoding->Force Encoding->Symbol *) Encoding->Reencode->Macintosh Latin *) File->Generate Fonts... (ignore warnings and save) Then *) remove symbol.ttf from whereever it was installed *) call "fc-cache" as root (-v if you like) *) copy the new symbol.ttf saved with fontforge to the old path *) restart the application which displayed the damaged symbols My "pi" bug 24731 is fixed then. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

In my case, e.g., the degree sign (U+00B0) was rendered as uppercase Upsilon which is wrongly mapped in the wine's Symbol font by the same code. And wine's unicode code for the degree symbol is U+221e, which normally refers to the math infinity sign. I think it would be great if this font was somehow prevented to override other system fonts for native linux applications, even after the unicode mismatch issue is corrected. Why my usual linux apps should be forced to use a wine's font? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Is anyone looking into it? The symbols.ttf font has a long list of incorrect mappings, and since the Ubuntu packages install this font as the default Symbols font for the entire system, it affects many programs, at least on Ubuntu. I suspect the same may be true for many other distributions. Where did this font come from? Was it created by the Wine project? If so, can it please be fixed? If not, then who created it and can we get them to fix it? If none of this is possible, then can it at least not be installed as the default Symbols font for the entire OS? I'd also say this bug can be confirmed, and the importance upgraded a little. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
