Bug Description
Binary package hint: fontconfig-config
fontconfig returns the wrong font for ZapfDingbats.
$ fc-match ZapfDingbats
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
however it works when looking for Dingbats instead
$ fc-match Dingbats
d050000l.pfb: "Dingbats" "Regular"
Actually I'm not sure whether it should be fixed in every distro or in fontconfig. I already commented it to upstreamer without response:

poppler and consequently evince are affected by this issue, since this font is used in pdf files that contains interactive forms.

Thanks for your bug submission.
I get the same response under gutsy:
tgalati4@ minty5: ~/Projects$ fc-match ZapfDingbats
DejaVu-Sans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
Marking as Confirmed. Bugzilla 6478 is marked as "FIXED". Evince correctly renders test document that reporter links to. Yet mapping is incorrect in Gutsy. Not sure why there is an incorrect match using fc-match yet evince is working correctly with (presumably) ZapfDingbats font.
This seems like a simple-enough fix.
