Konqueror show me [mu square.krum.pus], [frum.pus]

I used copy-paste and at home I saw square. But now atr work with Windows I see on both correct. Something is wrong with Konqueror...

Re: Konqueror-Firefox-Fonts

I have seen the problem. I has to do with the character encoding of the document you are reading.
Look in the source code for a line like:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8">

I have noticed that some times browsers  (including Firefox) seem to not "understand" (support) some of the extended ASCII characters and display the "box" thing.

I do not think there is anything we can do about it ...

I had that problem as well, and after trying to figure out exactly what the problem is I lost my patience and reinstalled...

pacman -S  pango fontconfig freetype1 freetype2 libfontenc libxfont libxft

I still don't know what worked...
