[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
The issue has been recently fixed in Ubuntu (i.e. in Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric)) by removing the font from the wine package.

[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
I'm doing a new Wine upload now, so Wine and its font will be rebuilt, so some further testing would be appreciated. Specifically: In oneiric: 1) Is the issue still there with wine1.3 1.3.28? 2) Is ttf-symbol-replacement-wine1.3 still the same issue as ttf-symbol-replacement ? 3) If Maverick worked and Natty didn't, then what happens if you install the maverick ttf-symbol-replacement package into Natty/Oneiric? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789479 Title: Improper encoding of the Symbol font To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wine/+bug/789479/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
Actually it seems like the font is still broken and there are better replacements installed by default so I'm just gonna remove it from the package entirely like I did with Tahoma replacement. ** Changed in: wine1.3 (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = In Progress ** Changed in: wine1.3 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Scott Ritchie (scottritchie) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789479 Title: Improper encoding of the Symbol font To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wine/+bug/789479/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
It would be possible to just, at the packaging layer, return the symbol font to be Wine only. But it would probably be better to fix it. It's also possible to lower the symbol replacement font priority. ** Changed in: wine1.2 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Triaged ** Changed in: wine1.3 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789479 Title: Improper encoding of the Symbol font -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
Thank you for your bug report. I can reproduce this problem (in Natty), but the culprit seems to be the ttf-symbol-replacement package from wine 1.2 and not poppler -- can you confirm that the symbols are displayed correctly when you uninstall ttf-symbol-replacement? ** Changed in: poppler (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789479 Title: Improper encoding of the Symbol font -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
Yes, uninstalling ttf-symbol-replacement solves this issue. Note that I have wine1.3 installed. I added both wine1.2 and wine1.3 to this issue. Still, I wonder why poppler picks a font from wine over Symbol.pfb. Shouldn't system gs fonts take precedence over ports from Windows provided by wine? Maybe this is a fontconfig issue as well? ** Also affects: wine1.2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: wine1.3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789479 Title: Improper encoding of the Symbol font -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 789479] Re: Improper encoding of the Symbol font
I'm invalidating the poppler bug, then. I think both fonts get exactly the same score when matching with fc-match -- AFAIK fontconfig does not use any priorities but just matches according to the font properties (the same for both fonts). I'm not sure whether this is a bug or not. And yes, both ttf-symbol-replacement and ttf-symbol-replacement-wine1.3 have this problem (the versions did not change yet in Oneiric, so the issue also still exists there). ** Changed in: poppler (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid ** Changed in: wine1.2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed ** Changed in: wine1.3 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed ** Bug watch added: Wine Bugzilla #24099 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24099 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789479 Title: Improper encoding of the Symbol font -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
