Watch that FF Symbol is not a possible substitute for Symbol -- one is a text font (sans serif) and the other a symbol/math font. So the foundry label should not usually be disregarded, except possibly as a last resort. Unfortuantely, looking at the font encoding tends not to be reliable with Type 1 fonts. Doesn't Acrobat come with a font substittion database? I forget. Nor do I know whether Adobe would have any interest in opening their font substitution technology.
