The log segment you posted originally (whether or not it is related to the
EAN13 issue) shows that your system is misconfigured. As you have discovered
above, you will have to configure all of the required fonts in your
koha-conf.xml file in order to clear the log of errors and have other things
work correctly (mainly diacriticals).

The best place to get step-by-step instructions would be on the user (or maybe
in this case, the developer) list. Bug 8375 may also yield some insight.

After reading your subsequent followup, I do agree with Bernardo that the root
of you issue is probably EAN13 issues.

Sorry for not being more descriptive, but my time is crunched atm.
