[Winehq-f <162111@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is a partial list of incorrect mappings in symbols.ttf (this is
just from the "Mathematical Operators" Unicode block:

0x2206 INCREMENT (displayed as an empty set symbol)
0x220f N-ARY PRODUCT (displayed as a division operator)
0x2211 N-ARY SUMMATION (displayed as a filled circle)
0x221a SQUARE ROOT (displayed as a squiggle)
0x221e INFINITY (displayed as an open circle)
0x222b INTEGRAL (displayed as three stacked horizontal bars)
0x2248 ALMOST EQUAL TO (displayed as a circled plus sign)
0x2260 NOT EQUAL TO (displayed as an up arrow)
0x2264 LESS-THAN OR EQUAL TO (displayed as a double quote)

Like I said, this is just from the "Mathematical Operators" block, I
didn't check any other blocks, although we know there must be other
blocks involved since the bullet symbol at least is also wrong and that
is in the "General Punctuation" block. This is just to demonstrate the
extent of the problem.

Title:
  Evince displays math equations incorrectly

Status in Evince document viewer:
  Confirmed
Status in Wine:
  New
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “wine1.2” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  I am using Evince to view a TexLive compilation of an Optics Express
  paper that I am trying to submit in DVI format.  The paper displays
  correctly in xdvi, but not in Evince.  Evince is much better in
  general than xdvi, so I would prefer to use it.  Evince does not
  display many parts of my math equations correctly.  It seems to be
  some kind of font issue, but I cannot figure out how to fix it.
