Confirmed in Lucid 64-bit, using OOO 3.2's export to pdf function.

Confirmed in Lucid 64-bit using Garamond font in a PDF created with OO.org Writer 3.2. Opened a .doc file, exported it as .pdf, and viewed with Evince 2.30.3. When one copies/pastes the infinity symbol back into OO.org Writer, it displays as a bullet. Editing /etc/fonts/local.conf as above fixed the problem. -- Evince replaces bullet by infinity symbol https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551977 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Confirmed in Lucid 32 bit using Times New Roman and Free Serif fonts in a PDF generated by OpenOffice.org Writer 3.2. The standard bullet symbol appearing Writer as a bullet and renders as a bullet when viewed with Acroread 9.3.1 but as an infinity symbol in Evince 2.30.3. -- Evince replaces bullet by infinity symbol https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551977 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The document I was testing with in OpenOffice.org was in .DOC format. I saved it as a .ODT file and then selected all text (Free Serif) and changed the bullet in OpenOffice.org Writer to a diamond symbol. I then selected all text again and changed the symbol back to a bullet and it now renders correctly in Evince. -- Evince replaces bullet by infinity symbol https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551977 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

There is not much we can do in Ubuntu. None of the fonts are provided with the distribution and you did the right thing and fontconfig match font files correctly (since 'Symbol' is closer to 'Symbol' than 'Standard Symbols L') But if you want a portable document with specific fonts and depending on your pdf authoring tool, you should embed the font in the pdf (only a subset to avoid huge documents) Acrobat Distiller (which seems to be the tool that generated this document) provide this kind of feature IIRC.

Can you attach the output of pdffonts for the problem file? If you can attach the actual file as well that would be even better. ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Evince replaces bullet by infinity symbol https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551977 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
