Summary: Undisplayable glyphs on Wikipedia Product: Fedora Version: 9 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: pango AssignedTo: besfahbo@redhat.com ReportedBy: beland@alum.mit.edu QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com
I did a fresh installation of Fedora 9 using the network install method and adding Office/Productivity software in addition to the default set. I'm seeing undisplayable glyphs on the following pages:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punctuation#Unicode http://www.wikipedia.org/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenician_alphabet#Encoding
I would expect a default installation to be able to display all glyphs that appear in Wikipedia, so that readers can learn about them. Many non-English glyphs, even fairly obscure ones, are displayed properly, which is excellent. It would be nice to finish off the rest. I don't know if this is a flaw in Pango, if I would need to install additional font RPMs, or something else.
This is with firefox-3.0-1.fc9.i386 and pango-1.20.4-1.fc9.i386.
