           Summary: Add substitution from ZapfDingats to Dingbats font
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 15
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: unspecified
          Priority: unspecified
         Component: urw-fonts
        AssignedTo: than at redhat.com
        ReportedBy: nalimilan at club.fr

    Classification: Fedora
      Story Points: ---
              Type: ---


Some PDF files that include symbols from the ZapfDingbats font without
embedding it (like [1]) render incorrectly on Fedora 15 when reading them in
Evince, Okular or GIMP. According to Poppler developers[2], this is because
Fedora doesn't include a substitution rule for this font, which can be found at
[3].

I could test that adding this rule fixes the problem. So I think tit should be
added, together with the Symbol -> Standard Symbols L one.

For reference, the file shipping the Dingbats font seems to be
/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/d050000l.pfb.
