But when fonts are not embedded into the original MSO/OOXML document (oversight, or lack of licensing) it is incumbent on the user to change the font to appropriate alternative that is available on their system. Lack of Winding fontfamily on non-MS Windows systems is NOT a LibreOffice responsibility. LibreOffice deploys the FOSS OpenSymbol work alike which can reliably substitute for unavailable MS Winding and Symbol fonts. In LibreOffice, from Tools -> Options -> Fonts in the Replacement Table panel create replacements for MS fonts. Enter Symbols, Windings, Windings2 and Windings3 (the left column: Font) with OpenSymbol (the right column: Replace with). Each requires an entry and check button action to add each substitution table, and then check the "Apply replacement table", and OK to complete the dialog. The Winding and Symbols glyphs will be replaced by their OpenSymbol equivalents. Alternatively, and in this specific case--most of the foundries installed with LibreOffice actually provide a comparable text arrow glyph (U+2192) as used in the slide. Fortunately, adjusting them one-off is simple and done by selecting the incorrect glyph place holder and picking a suitable substitute font from available foundries visually displayed in the Special Character dialog--the capital Omega button. Believe any of these fonts provide comparable appearance to the MS Wingdings arrow.
