--- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Steps to reproduce are a bit muddled. Also, you don't mention the build of
LibreOffice you are using. 

So it is not clear how you would have a Wingdings replacement from Word 2010.

The LibreOffice Autocorrect replacement of the sequence "-->" is with Unicode
codepoint 0x2192. But a 0xf0e0 codepoint is the Private Use from the Micrsoft
Windgdings font. The codepoint is undefined for the Calibri font--and why there
is a blank character there. 

The screen clips you provide show that font fall back is occurring as the
Calibri font in the font drop list is italicized. So, assume you are on a Linux
OS. 

When I open attachment 133832 in LO 5.3.3.2 on a Windows 10 Pro system, the
Wingdings PUA glyph shows. 

The font handling behavior on Windows has been reworked for the 5.3 builds. And 
believe if you set a font that is present in both Windows and Linux OS you will
not have any issues with the fall back--or with export to PDF.
