Strange symbols on menus

[sianhumphrey 0]

Hi, bit of a strange one. Since upgrading to a Hauwei P20 Pro on Android 8.1 in the menus in EN (and only in EN) menus and shortcuts have been replaced by strange font symbols. (See photos.) It's making it hard to use, especially on the note edit screen because I can't tell what each item is. I've reported it but they say they are 'having a difficult time reproducing the bug'. Anyone else encountered this? My other Android device has no issues.

Thanks.

There was a report of this issue on Huawei phones over a year ago. One user found a solution (the entire thread may be of interest to you):
