I've got a problem with some of the texts not appearing in Ubuntu 11.04. I use the Spanish translation of Ubuntu and reinstalling the packages didn't solve the problem.

You will find some screenshots appended. In the first screenshot a "Label Empty" text can be seen where it should say "Log off" ("Cerrar sesión" in spanish).

The second one shows de Log off screen dialog, where te button is actually empty (says nothing) and there are some strange characters in the question dialog.

Does anybody know how to fix these?

Reinstalling the packages won't necessarily help because localization info was separated in Ubuntu. You may want to open Settings, Language support (icon with United Nations flag) and see if it prompts for localization not being completely installed.

The font issue is specially challenging because these Unicode symbols should be supported by default. If you type locale at a terminal, will the output look like LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 ? If it is, try selecting a different font like 'Ubuntu' or 'Sans' in the Appearance settings.
