I just wanted to report a bug, and info-en@wikipedia.org referred me here.
Sadly, upon trying to create a pdf (using the otherwise genius Print/export feature) of a page that involves lines above letters (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mesons) the lines above letters (here essential to indicate the difference between Particle and Antiparticle) just disappear.
In the linked Article that can be seen in the caption under the first Image where the pdf then contains the text "The strange antiquark (s)" despite there being a line above the "s" in the online Article.
greetings, Daniel
Hi Daniel,
sorry for the late reply.

Confirming. I cannot quickly find an existing bug report in https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?component=Collection&resoluti...
Could you please create a bug report at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20extensions&...
Note that there are also rumors of a new PDF Renderer being worked on, so it can only get better. :)
Cheers, andre

Hello,
Looking at the templates, the overline is ultimately rendered using:
<span class="text-decoration:overline;">q</span>
I guess the PDF generator does not support that CSS :-/

Is it possible to rewrite the templates to use the proper unicode characters instead? That would make a bunch of things happier (including the new PDF renderer). --scott
