Frame and symbol font, character drop-out

["Jochim, Rainer 3139 PPE-QA2" <Rainer.Jochim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
We use a self-made symbol font (Truetype and Type1 on WinNT). The letter
combination XYZ is used to create the company logo.

For the colored version of the logo the colors are assigned as follows:
X is black
Y is blue
Z is yellow.

Printing this logo on an ink jet printer gives fine results.

Creating a PDF, on the other hand, gives different results depending on the
colors selected in FrameMaker:

If 
XYZ are all black
the logo is complete and appears in black & white.
Selecting the logo in the PDF file and pasting it into an ascii editor
inserts the three letters XYZ. That's what I'd expect.

If 
XY are black
Z is yellow
the logo is complete a well and appears in black and yellow.
Copying and pasting again comes up with the three letters XYZ.

If, however,
X is black
Y is blue
Z is yellow
the logo is NOT complete any more.
After selecting the logo in the PDF file and pasting it into an ascii editor
I only get TWO of the THREE letters: X and Z. The Y is missing. Y?

I somehow suspect the font to be the culprit. On the other hand, doing the
same thing in WordPad or Word works perfectly. Anybody ever encountered
something similar with symbol fonts?

Thanks,
Rainer
