Public bug reported:
Some of Arial's special characters are rendered with serifes in 16.04,
as shown in this image attached
In 14.04, the characters in the circles did not have serifes and were
rendered like normal Arial characters (with a circle around).
I also attached an image which was rendered with Arial in 14.04, looking
much more like Arial.
At any time, I had package ttf-mscorefonts-installer installed.
