Neither I have it in wheezy but in lenny the two sample PDF files render with the wrong character. In both systems I have "symbol.ttf" installed under the same path ("/usr/local/share/fonts/*.ttf"). > The only fonts on the system being used are the X11 fonts, freefont and > dejavu (both ttf) and gsfonts.

I mean, moving "symbol.ttf" to a different place so it's not detected by the system makes PDFs appear okay. That means there has to be a problem with fontconfig or freetype packages in lenny and this specific truetype font as the others don't present this problem.
