First letter dissappears #3441
Description
Describe the bug
When rendering text inside a container that uses a custom style with flexDirection: "row", certain capital letters disappear. However, other Greek capital letters render completely fine under the exact same conditions.
I am using Roboto font, but i try other fonts and get the same result.
To Reproduce
The bug exists in {location}
<View style={styles.row}>
<Text style={styles.text}>Πελάτης:</Text>
<View
style={[
styles.headerTable,
{ width: 200, marginLeft: 10, marginBottom: 0 },
]}
>
<Text
style={[
styles.text,
{ paddingHorizontal: 15, width: "100%", textAlign: "center" },
]}

</Text>
</View>

For now, this problem solved by split the first letter, and then followed by the rest of the word
