Summary: Undisplayable glyphs on Wikipedia
Product: Fedora
Version: 9
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: pango
AssignedTo: besfahbo(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: beland(a)alum.mit.edu
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)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.
