Hi Ed,

I've just followed your answers in the "evince" thread:

In my case, I think the problem is due to evince that uses the wine-symbol
fonts from the wine-symbol-fonts package.

Also, as for you, xpdf and acroread work like a charm (since they use other
fonts).

It's a pity that the related bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1037882
is still unsolved.

I try to remove these fonts, hoping that wine continue to work anyway.

Thank you very much for your help.

Best,

-- Marco
