I just picked up the TDNT, installed it and when clicking a strong's number I have boxes showing (see screenshot). Is there a font I should be selecting? The Greek and Hebrew characters show nicely.

When looking at the same word (G2198) in TDNTa I do not see any boxes. It looks like the boxes should be "[" and "]".

I run TW in Linux Mint 20

I tried DejaVu Sans and that is working for me.
