This sounds strange.  Is there any chance that you could send me the
font?  Failing that could you send me the output of ftdump?

Huw.

in your mailbox.

I did not even know ftdump, here is the output of my rinki dinkie:

These two are the problem fonts:

|  font '/dos/d/win98/fonts/nwcv15.ttf'
| num_glyphs 60 flags 00000219 num_charmaps 2 firstchar 0
| encoding #0 is armn platform: 1 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar 0
| encoding #1 is symb platform: 3 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar 20

| font '/usr/share/fonts/truetype/mapsym.ttf'
| num_glyphs 46 flags 00000219 num_charmaps 3 firstchar 20
| encoding #0 is unic platform: 0 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar 20
| encoding #1 is armn platform: 1 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar 0
| encoding #2 is symb platform: 3 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar 20

Compare that to a well behaved font:

|  font '/dos/d/win98/fonts/VANDALE.ttf'
| num_glyphs 227 flags 00000259 num_charmaps 3 firstchar f020
| encoding #0 is unic platform: 0 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar f020
| encoding #1 is armn platform: 1 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar 0
| encoding #2 is symb platform: 3 encoding: 0  err 0 firstchar f020

Encoding & platform are exactly the same, I need something else then the
charmap properties.
