PDFs created from R (language and environment for statistical computing and graphics) render incorrectly with poppler-based viewers (like okular), but correctly with xpdf (see attached files).

The problem is reported on http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/grDevices/html/pdf.html, and the workaround worked for me: add to ~/.fonts.conf the lines:

<alias binding="same">
<family>ZapfDingbats</family>
<accept><family>Dingbats</family></accept>
</alias>

I do not have this problem on my Debian sid box (there, okular renders correctly without need of doing anything).
