Cause
There is an open bug with Red Hat on a font issue with the later versions of OpenJDK.
Fix
Work around is to switch back to Utopia fonts in /etc/fonts/local.conf. Patches in 1.8.1.131 switched the font to STIX. This doesn't work right with the headless java in OpenJDK,
Credit to "titou10" at StackOverflow for the work around.
