Public bug reported: The symbol.ttf font installed by this package contains an infinity symbol where a bullet should be. You can check this by opening Character Map, selecting the Symbol font and navigating to character 0x2022 (name "BULLET", description "small black circle") and observing that the actual character displayed there looks like an infinity symbol (or rather an 8 on its side).
Among other things this is causing bullet points in PDF's to be displayed as infinity symbols by Evince. The place where the infinity symbol *should* be also appears to contain the wrong character, if you go to character 0x221e (name "INFINITY"), it actually displays an open circle. Many other characters also appear to be wrong, so possibly this is intentional and has to do with some weird Windows compatibility issue, but if that is the case, this font should not be installed as the default Symbols font for the entire operating system! ** Affects: wine1.3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873394 Title: symbol font contains infinity symbol where a bullet should be To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.3/+bug/873394/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
