If you are planning for your PDFs to be compliant with
international PDF standards such as PDF/X or PDF/A - then you can NOT
have ANY characters in teh PDF that map to .notdef.

Why do you want this?!?!? Why would you want to put a
character into the text stream of a PDF that isn't drawn? And why
is Text Rendering mode #3 (no stroke or fill) not acceptable?
