Instead of autohinting-friendly I meant to say unhinted-friendly. E.g. in the
case of the symbol EQUAL both strokes are rather narrow. With "naive scaling" as
is done on WIN32 for unhinted glyphs it is possible that for some font pixel
heights the outline of one of the bars is scaled in such a way, that no middle
point of the raster is covered. This means that the bar is not drawn and the
EQUAL looks like a MINUS. If the strokes were just wide enough that the scenario
outlined above would not happen at small font pixel heights I would call the
symbol "looks ok even when unhinted". This problem should have been found when
the font was tested at different zoom sizes on WIN platforms.

The quality and design of the OpenSymbol font are certainly your
responsibilities and I like to help you with it. It not acceptable though that
an issue, that is clearly a bug and you are responsible to solve it, is
reassigned to me just "to get it out of your intray". Keep the issue, solve it
by testing the font on WIN and UNX and change the symbols that don't look right
until they look right. This is not black magic or something..., sorry for the
harsh words.
