Yeah! Julien, you are seeing it, and the other problems.

I can explain. I studied Greek in college and I get the font...

Those accent mark things above and under the letters are rendered by fonts
similarly to how "ff" might be a single character. I don't know base-language
level font encoding, but UTF-8 might regard ὑ or ά as actually two separate
characters, like combo letters in creating fonts.

Dealing with that "correctly" is probably where the problem begins.

Summary:

TexGyre might not do their fonts "correctly", but that Roman default font does.

Calligra got TexGyre to render correctly... BUT, Amazon's print on demand says
the Calligra .pdf file is broken...

(Calligra rant: in Calligra, .doc > .pdf, it messed up the page numbers; .odt >
.pdf Calligra was great, but Amazon said it was broken or someth. So, not even
Calligra is perfect in this.)

That's what I know.

Cheers and kudos all!
