Even this new version of FreeSans seems to be incomplete. Characters
like musical symbols doesn't show up when Bold or Italic, but FreeSans
Normal works fine. Those characters are, among others: π„žπ„†π„‡β™―β™­π„π„Žπ„‚
(Hopefully they display in this email). Well, it's not an
OpenOffice.org issue, but rather an FreeFonts issue, I guess, so my
problem is solved anyway, in the way that I now know why this happens.
