Description
I'm using a flashcard program that utilizes QtWebKit to display the cards (Anki). I've imported a 100 sign cuneiform (in unicode 0x12000 - 0x1236E) set of flashcards. While the cuneiform symbols are displayed correctly throughout the system (chrome browser, safari browser(webkit), textedit, etc) an extra "Surrogate Character" is printed only when the character is displayed by qtwebkit. To verify that the issue was with qtwebkit, I used Qt Creator to run the example webkit project and was able to reproduce the results. Attached is a screenshot of the Qt Creator test.
Another note, this issue seems to show up only on Mac (maybe linux) but not on Windows. When I try to display the character with qtwebkit on a Windows 7 machine, the surrogate character does not display (meaning it works as expected).
These tests were with the latest Qt Creator and qtwebkit (4.7.x)
Steps to reproduce:
Display the following HTML using QtWebKit
<html><head></head><body><h1>Cuneiform Test for 𒀀</h1><div><span style="font-family: Assurbanipal; font-size: 64px;">𒀀</span></div><hr><div>A</div> </body></html>
