Hi,

We are using following characters HTML:
1. Issue with symbol (~) - The symbol overlaps the alphabet
2. Carot symbol overlapping issue
3. Issue with bar symbol (-) - The symbol overlaps the alphabet etc..

These characters are overlapping with the letters in generated PDF and Requesting your help in solving this issue?

Thanks,
Anjan

Can you post the html/css in question, or send it to mikeday@yeslogic.com? Thanks.

If this is using combining diacritics such as u+302 (circumflex) and u+305 (overbar), then Prince is quite dependent on the underlying font to position the diacritics sensibly. DejaVu Sans does a reasonable job other than over capital Gamma; other fonts I tested performed quite badly, sometimes not combining the diacritic with the preceding base letter at all.
