[Bug 330576] Re: 'infinity' symbol from displayed as 'o' instead 'oo'; Acrobat works correctly
Dimitrio, many thanks for the tips. I already had gsfonts-x11 installed. So that does not appear to be the problem. When I call fc-match Symbol I get symbol.ttf: Symbol Regular So that is different from your installation. I once installed msttcorefonts but that should not include Symbol if Synaptic is reporting correctly. I found a similar bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/37745 So, if symbol.ttf is not shipped as standard by Ubuntu, then the error could be in my side (user configuration). What puzzles me a bit is the fact that Acrobat Reader on my Ubuntu machine displays the pdf file correctly. Maybe, Acrobat has its own fonts. Anyway: many thanks for the help.

Addition: I located symbol.ttf on my system at /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ I do not know which package actually installed it. I renamed it to symbol.ttf.off and afterwards the infinity symbol shows up correctly. Both with evince and with Acrobat reader. So: Not an evince bug but a user configuration problem.

you can find out which package installed a certain file by typing dpkg -S path_to_file in your case, that would be dpkg -S /usr/share/fonts/truetype/symbol.ttf closing this bug as invalid ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- 'infinity' symbol from displayed as 'o' instead 'oo'; Acrobat works correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330576 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

manfred, the infinity symbol renders correctly here. i can see that the font is Symbol, which is not embedded in the pdf document. on my system, fc-match Symbol returns Standard Symbols L, which is included in package gsfonts-x11. to sum up, can you install the package gsfonts-x11 and try opening the pdf file again? ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- 'infinity' symbol from displayed as 'o' instead 'oo'; Acrobat works correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330576 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
