If new Greek letters can be added and show correctly, its not the font. It sounds to me more as if the transfer involved loading the document into a non Unicode-aware editor. I have seen some text editors produce that sort of 'closest ascii match' substitution.

I have recently moved my work from an old laptop to my new one. On my new laptop, Inkscape (which is likely a slightly newer version than that on my old laptop) is not correctly rendering any of the Greek letters in my figures. A sigma is shown as an 's', etc.
All letters were composed in verdana using copy/paste from character map in Windows XP. They have transferred to two other computers correctly (and obviously show up correctly on the old laptop). I can compose NEW Greek letters via this method on these SVG's perfectly. I am using Version .45.1. Other special figures, like the bullet and the infinity symbol, rendered fine.
Any ideas?
I searched the forum for the keywords "Greek letters" but I found nothing useful. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/A-problem-with-Greek-letters-tf4673361.html#a13351532 Sent from the Inkscape - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
