Title:
  Bullets displayed as infinity signs in Evince not in Adobe Reader

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04

  2) apt-cache policy evince

  3) What is expected to happen in Evince via the Terminal:

  unoconv --listener &

  then:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget -c
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/855754/+attachment/2436904/+files
  /bullet-test.doc -O inf.doc && unoconv -f pdf inf.doc && evince
  inf.pdf

  The bullets do not display as infinity signs.

  4) What happens instead is the bullets are displayed as infinity
  signs.

  WORKAROUND: Use Adobe Reader.
