      Hi

      Till the version 27, special font characters like arrow, or social network icon don't appear correctly, I have a square instead of the character ?

      Screenshot

      Is it normal ?

        This developer version has some issues with Unicode font substitution or you may have not the font on your system.

        Some URL to test this?

              I don't have this bug in Opera 26 and Opera 25.

              The only difference with Opera 27 is the default font is Helvetica instead of Helvetica Neue but with Helvetica in Opera 27 I still have this bug ... Maybe it's an OS X problem.

                  When I change :

                  a {
                      ...
                      font-family:Helvetica;
                      ...
                  }
                  

                  The square style just change and I still don't see the icon.

                      I have the same problem, but worse with Opera 27.0.1689.69. Win 7 32

                      In this Example from above it wont even load the CSS output. In fact, the buttons on the bottom of CodePen dont work either.

                      This Screenshot is my Opera.
                      This Screenshot is in Firefox and all the functions work correctly.

                      It is the same case for the other 2 examples "meakl" posted above.

                      The site i used to upload the pics (http://www.imagesup.net/) i even had to use in Firefox because it didnt work in Opera.

                      I just figured out what the problem actually was so im not sure when it started.
