Hello, thanks for replying and testing, I'll try to explain differently, it's
not about the em dash, but rather custom symbols, inserted from fonts like Font
Awesome.

I made the documents designed like the example one I attached in LO 25.2, where
when I inserted a symbol through the toolbar icon (the omega with a dropdown),
the symbol is inserted, a link doesn't have to be created, but for external
link icons I do create links (I select the icon and press Ctrl+K or the toolbar
icon).

When I upgraded LO to 25.8 I noted the symbols breaking in my documents, they
look like a square with a cross inside (as if it was invalid), I selected a
symbol and noticed they're forced to use the body font (in this case: Min Sans)
unless I manually select the symbol and re-apply the font, so it's an issue for
documents I've made back in 25.2 and open in 25.8.

I tried to show this through a screenshot here: https://ibb.co/YTDV5mRW

I noted something weird and is that the symbol shows up on the dialogue, I
changed the link and it stays with the Min Sans font, I know I can fix this by
just selecting and setting the font back on each part I used a symbol, but it's
a hassle because I used these often.

I recently switched to Bazzite Linux, so I'm using the latest available Flatpak
release here, an added rendering (?) issue happens once I insert symbols like
these where they turn the background text white until the end of a paragraph
and from where the symbol appears, but I'll report that separately.
