Bug Description
The Ubuntu-R.ttf file appears to have a broken Unicode cmap subtable, where character U+2019 (single quote) is mapped to glyph 373, which is the superscript 9 glyph. The Apple Roman cmap subtable is correct, and maps it to glyph 111. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in different applications, depending on whether they access the Unicode or Apple Roman cmap subtable.
