Missing font in dictionary?

I just noticed that in Webster's dictionary I'm getting a bunch of squares that look like missing characters. Not sure what these characters would be. Here's an example of what I mean.

    Jacob,

    Are you using Windows XP. I believe that there is a problem with one of the fonts in XP. I see this in transliterations and some other places. 

    The problem is known but I cannot remember reading of any promised fix.

    Yes, XP

    This problem has not been fixed...

    The font appears fine in version 3. 

    In XP All 3 dictionaries have font issues:


    • Merriam Webster 11th ed
    • Concise Oxford
    • Merriam-Webster Spanish-English

    On my 64 bit vista machine it appears that only the latter 2 have the issue.

    I continue to have a problem with fonts on both computers in the Oxford Dictionary and Merriam Webster Spanish-English. Lot's of placeholding squares on both my machines appear. Any plans on fixing this?

    Yes, it appears there is a Transliteration font issue in XP - I've already reported it, and was told a fix was on the way.

    My issue transcends XP. It appears in both XP and Vista. So hopefully its the same bug and it'll be fixed.
