Package: openoffice.org Version: 1.1.0-1 Severity: normal After upgrade to latest version (1.1.0-1/1.1.0-2), oowriter can not display symbols correctly. Instead, it displays any symbol as a blank space. However, the symbol is actually there. This is confirmed by saving the text document and then openning it from my RedHat Linux 9 box, where two versions of openoffice.org (1.0.2 rpms from RedHat and 1.1.0 self-installing tar balls from www.openoffice.org) installed. Both versions on RedHat Linux 9 can display the symbols fine. Printing the documents from RedHat Linux box works fine as well. I don't test print from my Debian sid box because I don't have a printer attached. Additionally, symbols are displayed fine before last upgrade, which was four or five days ago? I can't remember exactly. But I am sure I upgraded openoffice.org (or accompanying packages like openoffice.org-debian-files or so) only once after the working status. And I run xfontsel from console, I see two families of symbol fonts, -urw-standard symbol 1-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-adobe-* and -adobe-symbol-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-adobe-* are available. The "symbol" family has all upper cases and lower cases of greek symbols; the "standard symbol 1" family has only upper cases of greek symbols and some math symbols. In my situation neither upper cases nor lower cases can be displayed with oowriter. This is crucial to me as I have to input many greek symbols in my documents. By the way, the greek symbols in formula are displayed fine. To repeat, open OpenOffice.org Writer, choose "symbol" instead of "Times New Roman" or "Thraole" for font, type a for greek letter alpha, hold shift key and press a for capital greek letter ALPHA, you'll see only two spaces are displayed.
