Description: When I use a font, which doesn't contain all glyphs I use or if a document uses a font, which is not installed on my system, so LO usually shows all glyphs using another font. But there is no warning about it, also I don't get any information about, which glyphs are replaced and which font is used instead. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use the unicode letter number 1D4DB (html: 𝓛 or 𝓛 ) 2. Use DejaVu Sans 3. Use the same letter in a LO-math-formula in writer Actual Results: in Text LO uses an ugly glyph in math-formula as a variable LO uses a nice glyph in math-formula as text LO uses the ugly glyph see above Expected Results: a „warning“ (changing background color for glyphs with font replacement e.g.) and information about the font used instead the desired one (in formatting bar or as popup or ... or at least explaining in LO-help how to get this information) also the possibility to define replacement suggestions would be nice Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: 1.this is a bug for years already, 2. the example given above is just for one glyph missing in one font, but similar things happen for whole texts using fonts, that aren't installed on a system, 3. the „nice“ glyph should be included in LO-math as setL (as setR, setN are defined)

Btw - the difference between math and writer is just the difference between regular and italic (variable is italic, text is regular) But this doesn't help with the bug. I would like to know, which fonts are chosen to display missing glyphs/fonts in LO and I would like to get a „warning/information“ about that.

Thank you for reporting the bug. it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
The same still in 6.3.3.2 Format text in a font, which is not installed on the system. The text will be shown in another font. No information about the fact, neither that it was replaced nor by which font. For missing glyphs in a certain font holds the same.
Let's ask UX team. For how to control substitution see bug 56076 comment 19
