Just to add a note: it happened to me also, because I have /usr/local as a symlink to /home/local (in a different partition) and evince (or apparmor) correctly complained.
So all fonts from Microsoft, which are installed in /usr/local/font, came out blank. Setting aa-complain solved momentarily the thing, then an edit of the profiles is recommended. Now, 'some font thing failed' is not exactly a very informative error message... ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448778 Title: Evince fails to display some fonts (some font thing failed) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1448778/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
