We have had this problem before with Isabelle2011. PG 4.x has a certain
idea about using glyphs from existing Unicode fonts, with a preference for
STIXGeneral as fall-back option -- this font includes a massive amount of
mathematical symbols.
For the Isabelle.app script (see Isabelle.app/Contents/Resources/script),
I am forcing that font onto the user as follows:
# enforce fonts
if [ ! -f "$HOME/Library/Fonts/STIXGeneral.ttf" -a ! -f
"$HOME/Library/Fonts/STIXGeneral.otf" ]
then
cp -f "$THIS/STIXv1.0.0/Fonts"/STIXGeneral* "$HOME/Library/Fonts/"
sleep 3
fi
This used to satisfy Emacs in finding the required glyphs.
Since Mac OS X Lion seems to provide its own copy of STIX fonts --
according to the advertisement -- there is some potential for confusion.
(I do not have Lion available right now on my desktop.)
In the end either Apple, Emacs or Proof General are to blame. If you can
give some hints how to improve the workarounds in the the above script, I
will amend this.
Moreover, for Isabelle_11-Sep-2011 I am still using the Emacs-23.2.1.app
from Isabelle2011, but this is going to be the current Emacs-23.3.app in
the coming release. There is a tiny chance that updating Emacs also solves
the problem -- see the symlink Contents/Resources/Emacs.app
