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.

Manfred
