Not reproducible with Vera’s successor DejaVu and OOo’s successor
LibreOffice on Lunar. The missing glyphs on the Special Characters
window could be explained by the fact OOo used to display that grid with
the thinnest font weight, inexplicably, which didn’t match the font file
displayed at the bottom left of the dialog, again, for no good reason.

Title:
  Characters missing in special character selection window

Status in fonts-dejavu package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  Hi,

  I'm using Openoffice.org 2.4.1~rc2-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy
  AMD64.

  In the special character selection window ("Insert", "Special
  Character"), the displayed table of characters contains gaps, i.e.
  Unicode character 2248 is displayed correctly. The next character
  displayed right next to the previous should of course be 2249. But
  this is not always the case. E.g. the next character as in my attached
  screenshot is in fact 2260! This means that several characters are not
  displayed at all.

  Selecting a special subset of Unicode characters in the top right
  selection box doesn't change the table of characters. The Gaps still
  exist, and other characters from a different subset are still
  displayed instead.

  
  Additionally, some characters show up only in form of a small rectangle, but only in the table on the left. They are displayed correctly on the right side of the window.

  A screenshot is available under:
  http://datenparkplatz.de/DiesUndDas/spCharacterProblem.png

  This affects many important mathematical characters useful in all
  language versions.
