Description Dimitris Karnoutsos 2009-03-20 21:23:49 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

The attachment below has some special characters (x with two dots on top) which okular didn't show until i installed mtextra.ttf (mathtype font). Although, okular cannot print this characters and prints instead of two dots, two "&" over the character.

What do you get if you print the file as postscript (File -> Print -> Print to File (PS)) and then open the resulting .ps with okular or gv?

Hi,

Okular does not render and prints PDF documents by itself, but uses a 3rd party library
called Poppler.
You should please report the problem to the Poppler's bug tracking system at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org, "poppler" product.

Thank you for the report.
