Description Corentin Poupry 2022-05-13 19:11:54 UTC 
SUMMARY

Okular does not correctly render some mathematical symbols in some PDFs I use as a student. I found a reference to a similar bug here https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32237

I can't provide the PDF here for copyright reasons, but I could send it to a developer

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the PDF
2. Note that some symbols are missing

OBSERVED RESULT
Some symbols are missing and make the document uninterpretable


EXPECTED RESULT
The document symbols should be interpretable

I forgot to mention that the renderer is Poppler 22.05.0
Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2022-05-14 23:36:49 UTC 
Okular doesn't do any pdf rendering so in any case this would be a poppler bug. Open an issue at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/issues
