Unreadable character in 1Password White Paper

On p. 28 of the 1Password White Paper, the symbol for "Uploaded" isn't rendering on my system. I'm using Preview on macOS 10.14.6.

Interestingly, Acrobat Reader seems to identify the problem:

Cannot extract the embedded font 'VENLVK+FiraMath-Regular-Identity-H'. Some characters may not display or print correctly.

    I think those are unrelated, but we are looking into ways to improve the white paper with regard to fonts, formatting, and mathematical notation. In the mean time, it will render fully in most web browsers. Thanks for bringing this up! :)

    Browser displays document correctly but saving file as .PDF results in a file which when opened in Adobe Acrobat DC results in the same error. Many document pages contain errors, especially the inability to display the title page.

    Why is this issue so long standing? Can't the font be included in the file available for downloading?

    @FortneyJT:

    I have just tried downloading the PDF of the white paper, and the title page shows up correctly for me:

    Please read my comment. It downloads correctly for me too but it can not be saved for use with Adobe Acrobat.

  • I'll pass that feedback along to our security team @FortneyJT, but in the meantime you may want to try a different PDF reader. I've opened it in Preview, Safari, and Pixelmator Pro, and they all display it correctly.
