------- Additional comments from [email protected] Wed Jul 8 15:39:09 +0000 2009 ------- We use DejaVu as our company font. I tried to create custom bullet lists that use the Bullets in DejaVu. A lot of the glyphs in DejaVu Sans (or DejaVu Sans mono) are not available in the special character selection box. For example the characters 26AB, 26AA, 26AC are absent (and lots more if I compare the installed TTF files as seen with fontforge and what is displayed by OO on Linux). This seems to be Linux specific, as it works on Windows where the characters are available. I've tried it with the Ubuntu 9.04 shipped DejaVu font definitions (2.28) and the latest from the DejVue website (2.29). Don't know enough about the font management internals, but I see the missing stuff show up as "Miscellaneous Dingbats" on Windows, whereas on Linux I only see Dingbats in the subset selection. Seems to point to OO selectively ignoring some subsections. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
