            Bug ID: 106515
           Summary: lcl_GetDefaultBulletFont font set to legacy
                    "StarSymbol" so unexpected system font fallback occurs
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: graphics stack
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu

Description:
lcl_GetDefaultBulletFont [2] sets Bullet font to StarSymbol which of course was
dropped from OOo before LO. The OpenSymbol glyphs are picked up in UI, but with
non-existent StarSymbol font called while setting Options/Customization a font
fallback occurs and System selected font is substituted and displayed for use
in the Special Character dialog.

On Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 that is Segoe UI -- so Unicode page displayed in LO
Special Character dialog is very disjointed. 

Believe this should probably have been changed in OOo era, when other
adjustments were made to the bullet list [2], but it remains.

At this point seems we should change the font from defunct StarSymbol to
OpenSymbol [1].  The remaining PUA glyph assignment for BLACK DIAMOND SUIT
U+e00c and BLACK SQUARE U+e00a to their OpenSymbol Unicode value of U+2666 and
U+25a0 respective [3]
