            Bug ID: 108720
           Summary: Do not render previews of symbol fonts
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice

In bug 93968, the issue was resolved for LO's default symbol font, OpenSymbol,
but the same also needs to happen for other symbol fonts like Webdings,
Wingdings, Wingdings 2, and Wingdings 3.

Caolan suggested in bug 93968 comment 13 to expand the available list of symbol
fonts in svtools/source/misc/sampletext.cxx under isSymbolFont[1] and then the
necessary coding can use that as the basis for the fix.

Heiko, Stuart, Cor: Do you know any symbol fonts on Windows or Linux that
should be added to the list?

Alex, Steve: Do you know any symbol fonts on Mac that should be added to the
list?

Caolan: Maybe you can provide a bit more details on how this can be achieved so
maybe it could be an easy hack. ;D
