Source: fonts-texgyre Version: 20150923-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When viewing PDFs that do not embed Helvetica, the μ (U+03BC) character does not render correctly when fonts-texgyre is installed. For example, this PDF: http://jim.sh/~jim/tmp/bugs/tps62120.pdf With fonts-texgyre (20150923-1) installed, glyphs are missing: $ xpdf tps62120.pdf # Missing character: third bullet point under "features" says: # Power Save Mode With 11- A Quiescent Current $ pdffonts -subst tps62120.pdf name object ID substitute font substitute font file ------------------------------------ --------- ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Arial-BoldMT 81 0 Arial Negreta /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold.ttf ArialMT 83 0 DejaVu Sans /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf Arial-ItalicMT 101 0 Arial Cursiva /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Italic.ttf Arial-BoldItalicMT 401 0 Arial Negreta cursiva /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold_Italic.ttf Helvetica 889 0 TeXGyreHeros-Regular /usr/share/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyreheros-regular.otf Helvetica-Bold 890 0 TeXGyreHeros-Bold /usr/share/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyreheros-bold.otf Helvetica 905 0 TeXGyreHeros-Regular /usr/share/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyreheros-regular.otf Helvetica-Bold 906 0 TeXGyreHeros-Bold /usr/share/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyreheros-bold.otf Arial-BoldItalicMT 973 0 Arial Negreta cursiva /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold_Italic.ttf ArialMT 975 0 DejaVu Sans /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf Arial-BoldMT 977 0 Arial Negreta /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold.ttf With fonts-texgyre removed (but tex-gyre still installed), glyphs are correct: $ xpdf tps62120.pdf # Correct: third bullet point under "features" says: # Power Save Mode With 11-μA Quiescent Current $ pdffonts -subst tps62120.pdf name object ID substitute font substitute font file ------------------------------------ --------- ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Arial-BoldMT 81 0 Arial Negreta /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold.ttf ArialMT 83 0 DejaVu Sans /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf Arial-ItalicMT 101 0 Arial Cursiva /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Italic.ttf Arial-BoldItalicMT 401 0 Arial Negreta cursiva /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold_Italic.ttf Helvetica 889 0 TeXGyreHeros /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/qhvr.pfb Helvetica-Bold 890 0 TeXGyreHeros Bold /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/qhvb.pfb Helvetica 905 0 TeXGyreHeros /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/qhvr.pfb Helvetica-Bold 906 0 TeXGyreHeros Bold /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/qhvb.pfb Arial-BoldItalicMT 973 0 Arial Negreta cursiva /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold_Italic.ttf ArialMT 975 0 DejaVu Sans /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf Arial-BoldMT 977 0 Arial Negreta /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial_Bold.ttf -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (250, 'testing'), (200, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-rc7+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
