Check the values for the "Banner Font" and "Header Font" in your "Colors and Fonts" preference page. Are they set to
fonts that can render those characters properly? Those little blocks look like they contain the double-byte hex values
for the characters that should be there, but not every font supports every character properly in every possible style
variation.
