Could you be more clear here: which TeX engine (XeTeX, pdfTeX, LuaTeX),
which output format (DVI, PS, PDF) and which viewer?

For me, Evince is the default PDF viewer, so I don't see why there should be
any difference.

I know that e.g. XeTeX silently drobs missing characters, as in some cases
\neq is composed out of two, this could be a missing \not char.

If the result depends on the viewer, there might be problems with the
character composition. Maybe this could be solved by using a font-package
providing a pre-composed character.
