Oops, copying the microsoft file does not fix the fonts. Sorry for the
spam!

Title:
Improper encoding of the "Symbol" font
I can confirm for wine-3.0.
I just overwrote the wine font with its Microsoft counterparts, and now
bullets in pdf documents no longer appear as infinity signs.

This bug still exists in Wine 1.3.29 and yet there has been no activity
on it for a year. Is anyone looking into it? The symbols.ttf font has a
long list of incorrect mappings, and since the Ubuntu packages install
this font as the default Symbols font for the entire system, it affects
many
Here is a partial list of incorrect mappings in symbols.ttf (this is
just from the Mathematical Operators Unicode block:
0x2206 INCREMENT (displayed as an empty set symbol)
0x220f N-ARY PRODUCT (displayed as a division operator)
0x2211 N-ARY SUMMATION (displayed as a filled circle)
0x221a SQUARE
The issue has been recently fixed in Ubuntu (i.e. in Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric)) by
removing the font from the wine package. The changelogs for both, wine1.2 and
wine1.3 mention:
* Remove ttf-symbol-replacement package

I'm doing a new Wine upload now, so Wine and its font will be rebuilt,
so some further testing would be appreciated. Specifically:
In oneiric:
1) Is the issue still there with wine1.3 1.3.28?
2) Is ttf-symbol-replacement-wine1.3 still the same issue as
ttf-symbol-replacement ?
3) If Maverick
Actually it seems like the font is still broken and there are better
replacements installed by default so I'm just gonna remove it from the
package entirely like I did with Tahoma replacement.
