Hello, thanks for taking a look at it, I opened your example and it displays
the symbol just fine, but maybe because your example was made on the newer
version, I tried making an example of my own from scratch where I don't copy
anything from my documents, I just create the external link icon from scratch
and make it a link, I did it on the version I had trouble with (had to get it
as AppImage from here: https://appimages.libreitalia.org/ )

I just added an attachment with a brand new example in hopes it's useful to
recreate the issue, but I'm not having the problem there, the steps were:
1) Make a blank document on LO 25.2.5.2 as AppImage.
2) Write some text and insert the U+F14C symbol from "Font Awesome 7 Free
Solid" font after the text.
3) Create a style where said font is chosen and a different color is chosen.
4) Save the document.
5) Open the document (the one just made) in latest LO, works as expected,
unlike in my original sample with things imported from MS Word 2010 (I just
checked and the "X" on rectangle still shows up).

You mentioned MS Mincho... that's the Japanese font LO defaulted to when I
originally created my documents on Windows (I used some Japanese characters in
these), I'm using Min Sans now which has CJK support.

It's an interesting observation, perhaps it's a remnant from pasting the text
with format from the MS Word 2010 documents when I was adapting them to LO
Writer, I'm guessing there's something on my documents which triggers the bug
unlike in a document made from scratch on the old version, then open in a newer
one.

I'll update my details on the version I'm using on the system:

Version: 25.8.4.2 (X86_64)
Build ID: 290daaa01b999472f0c7a3890eb6a550fd74c6df
CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 6.18; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+wayland)
Locale: es-UY (en_US.utf8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

My distro is Nobara with the official flavor (custom KDE Plasma).
