    Hello,
    we have a strange bug only with one customer and only in one window - I can't find any difference in the code that may causes this. Maybe it's not a QT problem. But anyway I try to ask, maybe someone else has seen that :-)
    While printing the content of this one window, every lower case "o" appears as placeholder icon, showed in the image. This appears with every font, but is not reproducable if not on the customer's machine.!

    Thank you

      @c-m-obrecht where does the text come from? is it part of your source code, or maybe a file that is read, or something similar?

        It is not a language issue because it prints the umlauts. I do not understand what you mean by "printing the content of this one window". It could be printing the content correctly. If you step with debug, do the variables in the debug window match the correct text? Where does "Forderungen" change into "Fxorderungen"? The placeholder is not a space. 'o' is ascii 111, 0x6F. What is the ascii code for the placeholder? Is it related to 0x6F by flipping a bit? 0x04F='O', 0x02F='/', 0x0F=Shift-In, which might be printed as a place-holder.
