This used to not be a problem with poppler, but after a code commit on November 1, 2008, it stopped working. The commit that broke this dealt with Type 3 fonts, so I suspect the 1/2 fraction is a type 3 font and that commit broke it.
I've reported this upstream to poppler as they are the ones who would create a patch for this. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #26143 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26143 ** Also affects: poppler via https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26143 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- The "½" character does not print correctly. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509179 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
