Please do report bugs on individual characters that are wrong.

Canonical is currently looking at getting bugs fixed in the font, so
now is an excellent time to report any problems.

If you want to be sure that it is a problem with the Ubuntu font,
rather than a fallback font, you can use this command at a terminal:

pango-view  --font="Ubuntu 48" --markup \
- --text='<span fallback="false">test text here</span>'

Change "48" to whichever size you want to test.

Thanks
