Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

When I open this pdf (http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~dzorin/sig00course/coursenotes00.pdf) with evince, some formulas are rendered incorrectly (compared to Adobe Reader). I have attached a screenshot from Evince and Adobe Reader for page 71 of that pdf. This also happens in Okular (maybe a bug in poppler).

I am using karmic, evince 2.28.1-0ubuntu1.

it renders correctly here, maybe I have more fonts installed than you...
can you please check if installing ttf-mscorefonts-installer or gsfonts fixes this issue for you?
thank you

@Dimitrios: Have you looked at the evince.png screenshot?

I ran the Adobe Reader in the same environment (same OS, same user), so both programs should have the same set of fonts. And I have both ttf-mscorefonts-installer and gsfonts packages installed.

Yes, I have looked at your screenshot. Here's how evince renders it on my system.

Yes, You are right. Should I close this bug?

By the way, have you installed fonts that are not in Ubuntu repositories?

I wouldn't want to close the bug before we know what makes the difference. So, have you managed to make evince render the pdf? I have installed and removed thousands of packages over the years on this system...

Screenshot-Specimen Font Previewer.png Edit (22.6 KiB, image/png)

Yes, I have those packages.
I used gnome-specimen to see which font is used to render "∑" character and the only font which contains a glyph for "∑" with a wrong shape is "Symbol". ttf-symbols-replacement package (recommended by wine1.2) contains this font and removing that package solved the problem.

reassigning to the wine1.2 package (which produces the ttf-symbol-replacement deb)
I have confirmed that installing that font breaks the rendering on evince

Symbol (?) appears to be broken in http://www.univie.ac.at/indogermanistik/download/Stifter/Druiden_Texte.pdf
Removing ttf-symbol-replacement and restarting did not seem to have an effect here
