Hi.

Which symbols are pictographs?  Is it the \/ on the left, or the top part?

Which version of SymPy are you using? In the git version, we changed
the symbol used for the top of the square root, so you should see

  ___
╲╱ x

instead of

  ⎽⎽⎽
╲╱ x

Perhaps you could try the git version if you're not using it (see
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/getting-the-bleeding-edge).

Are you sure that 1/sqrt(x) prints correctly?  This should be using
the exact same characters as the other one.

Finally, are you using a downloaded version of the font, or one that
came with your computer?  The downloaded version is newer than the
ones that come with computers from what I've seen, so you might try
that.  See http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Main_Page
