I'm seeing the same problem as described in bug #901858 with
google-croscore-symbolneu-fonts-1.21.0-4.fc18.noarch package. Removing the
package solves the problem and math symbols are displayed correctly.

microchip pdf showing the fault
Description of problem:
When reading technical pdfs, the wrong symbols are displayed for some math
characters. e.g. pi is displayed as not equal, ohms as a vertical bar, and
micro (mu) is displayed as infinity.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
okular-4.9.5.-1.fc18
How reproducible:
Displaying a technical pdf such as
http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/AppNotes/00954A.pdf
shows the wrong symbols.
E.G. In figure 1 - the value for C2 is displayed as 470 (inf) F instead of 470
(mu) F
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Display technical pdf
2.
3.
Actual results:
pi is displayed as not equals
ohms as a vertical bar
micro(mu) as infinity
Expected results:
The correct symbols should be displayed
Additional info:
Evince also has this problem, but emacs displays everything correctly.
This happens across a range of pdfs and I think is a serious bug than needs
fixing as soon as possible,. It reflects badly on fedora if we cannot display
technical specifications properly.

> Evince also has this problem
Reassigning to poppler, which is the common library used by both.
What I see is that this PDF does not embed its fonts, which means you get
whatever fonts are installed on the system. In this case, Symbol is mapped to
wine-symbol-fonts. So I'm not sure whether poppler or the font is doing the
wrong thing there.
And by the way, the PDF is bad because it uses a font outside of the PostScript
standard (Symbol) and doesn't embed it. A portable PDF MUST embed all the
non-PostScript fonts it uses.
--- Additional comment from Richard Kennedy on 2013-02-28 07:57:45 EST ---
Just a quick update.
The new embedded pdf reader in Firefox 19 displays these files correctly too.
Well, the pdf may not be correct but it was created by adobe software & there
are lots of them out in the wild, so we should do something to fix it.
Can I change the default font mapping for popper to something else ? If so how
do I go about that?
--- Additional comment from Kevin Kofler on 2013-02-28 19:00:01 EST ---
As I said, it's a bug in either poppler or wine-symbol-fonts (or both).
Unfortunately, the poppler maintainer hasn't answered so far.
--- Additional comment from Marek KaÅ¡Ãk on 2013-03-01 07:05:38 EST ---
Hi,
this is a bug in wine-symbol-fonts package. The symbol.ttf font has wrong
mapping.
For additional info see upstream bug
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24099.
I'm reassigning this to wine.
Regards
Marek

Wow, it's great news that this the cause is known, because I've been struggling
with this for some time. Unfortunately upstream bug report has been there for
quite some time with no progress, so I'm not sure what chance we have of
getting this fixed. What would break by removing this font? Can it be removed
from the dependency list of the wine-fonts metapackage?
--- Additional comment from Kevin Kofler on 2013-03-01 17:53:16 EST ---
Would that really fix the issue? I don't think the symbols can be properly
displayed if the font is entirely missing. I suspect there's no way around
fixing the font.
--- Additional comment from Richard Kennedy on 2013-03-02 11:50:34 EST ---
I've just fixed the font following the steps in the wine bug 24099 and it
works.
I only run one wine app, ltspice, and it still works after the fix, so it's all
looking good.
Both firefox & emacs can display these characters properly so they must be
using some other font, but I don't know how to find out which one. But if we
could find out can we swap the mapping to that?
--- Additional comment from Richard Kennedy on 2013-03-02 13:29:50 EST ---
Having thought about this some more, I think that is more likely that the bug
really is that poppler isn't handling unicode characters properly.
I cut & pasted the failing mu character from evince into emacs, and it says
it's unicode 0x3BC. So it seems that poppler tries to use the symbol font and
0x3BC
is something different in there because it's broken too.
emacs and firefox somehow resolve the unicode character correctly and don't end
up in the symbol font, but I haven't found out which font they do use.
I didn't realise all of this stuff was so involved and complex. At least fixing
up the font is a temporary fix.
--- Additional comment from Kevin Kofler on 2013-03-02 17:58:39 EST ---
Maybe poppler shouldn't be looking up "Symbol" in fontconfig at all, but handle
the Symbol font specially? The Window$ Symbol TTF font which WINE's font tries
to emulate is a hack which predates Unicode and maps Greek letters and other
symbol characters to plain 8-bit characters (0-255). Somebody should probably
test what happens when you use the original M$ Symbol.ttf. If it has the same
issue, it's not WINE's fault.
--- Additional comment from Richard Kennedy on 2013-03-04 12:44:39 EST ---
Just a couple of notes :-
* The poppler version here is 0.20.2 which was released on Tue July 10, 2012,
and
the latest is 0.22.1 which contains quite a number of bug fixes.
* I've reset my machine to the default state and if I run pdftohtml on this
file
the correct characters are generated in the html. (pdftohtml is a poppler
tool).
* Libre Office also can display these files correctly.
Is there any way to get poppler to use the opensymobol font to resolve these
symbols? AFAICT opensymbol contains all of the correct unicode so might make a
good replacement and it's already installed.

The poppler-0.22.1 doesn't fix this.

It generates correct html because the codes for those characters are correct in
the pdf.
> * Libre Office also can display these files correctly.
Do you mean the html or the pdf? Libre Office displays me the same characters
as poppler when importing the pdf.

Place the attached file to ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf. This will blacklist
the font for all applications which use fontconfig (useful when the
wine-symbol-fonts is a dependency of a package which you don't want to remove).
I've tried to view a file with the character for the micro sign (UTF-8 code
0xC2B5) in notepad which is part of wine-common. After switching the font to
"Symbol", it showed me the incorrect symbol. I guess that there is really
something wrong with the font.
Regards
Marek
--- Additional comment from Kevin Kofler on 2013-03-05 10:00:50 EST ---
The problem is that the Symbol font was designed in a way that the 'm'
character is displayed as 'µ', and 'µ' is not mapped to anything. In fact,
Symbol was the way to get those special characters in old software which didn't
support Unicode. I don't know whether it's possible to fix this issue without
breaking that old software when people try to run it under WINE. I hope it's
possible, but I'm not sure. The WINE upstream bug report has a proposed fix,
but I don't know whether that fix doesn't break the non-Unicode apps.
--- Additional comment from Andreas Bierfert on 2013-03-05 14:55:02 EST ---
Well as a workaround we could confine wine symbol to wine for now (like with
tahoma). This would reduce the problem to wine applications.
Before resorting to this I will investigate a bit...

Story Points: ---
Type: ---
Description of problem:
I have some thoughts on improving UI for iok, particularly for the use case on
non-Indic language.
1) Get rid of "English" entry from the language list.
That is meaningless to keep it there since "to English" button is available.
2) should keep the same state to the initial state after clicking "to English"
button.
I think the initial state would be natural. I mean selecting the language
from ASCII layout (English mode) since the neutral position is ASCII layout on
other IM. however once selecting the language from the list and switch back to
English mode with "to English" button, iok masks the language list. one needs
to switch with "To <language" button to choose other language from the list.
this behavior isn't consistent to the initial state and other IM. there are IM
that supports to switch multiple IME regardless of current state though, if you
want to provide such features, you should simply stop masking the language
list.
3) maybe "to ASCII" is better than "to English"?
I like to see the icon to indicate the state of "on" and "off" with the icon
though, if you want to keep the string, guess that would be better using
"ASCII" instead of "English".
4) selected the language from the list should keeps it default in next time
5) entries in the language list should be translatable
Since it's hidden when running iok on any Indic locale, that should appears
in the native language on current desktop. that would be helpful for those who
wants to learn Indic but running iok on their locale.
6) simplify the language list like the IME list on ibus
there are too many entries on the language list. that would be nice to
simplify like ibus does.

Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in
autoconf 2.69. WritRecogn appears to use an earlier version of
autoconf, preventing its being built. This can be fixed in of three ways (In
order of preference):
1. Work with upstream to migrate the package to autoconf 2.69.
2. Rerun autoconf or autoreconf in %prep or %build prior to running
configure.
3. Apply the patch at
http://ausil.fedorapeople.org/aarch64/WritRecogn/WritRecogn-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.

Description of problem:
autopoint fails if the GREP_OPTIONS environment variable contains the -n
(prefix each line of output with line number) option.
This happens because autopoint assumes that grep outputs lines of the source
file in an unmodified form, which is not always true.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. cd to a directory with a configure.ac file which contains the
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION macro
2. run "GREP_OPTIONS=-n autopoint --force"
Actual results:
autopoint: *** Missing version: please specify in configure.ac through a line
'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(x.yy.zz)' the gettext version the package is using
autopoint: *** Stop.
autoreconf: autopoint failed with exit status: 1
Expected results:
autopoint succeeds as if the -n grep option was not set.

I'm using irssi on gnome-terminal (Monospace font), after update Japanese fonts
changed, they're now much smaller (compared to latin), harder to read (some
ideograms are completely unreadable). It is very annoying, because I use
Japanese and sit on Japanese channel a lot. The change occured only in
terminal, in gEdit and other applications old fonts are still used for typing
(SCIM + Anthy) and displaying.
The change didn't affect everyone, some Fedora 10 still got old, simple and

Just try displaying any Japanese text.
