Copy/paste Greek text from PDF annos into FM6.0 variable definition

[maxwell.hoffmann]

I am making some corrections to documents published in Greek in FrameMaker 6.0. 
I have corrections in Greek characters in comment/annotation notes in PDF 
files. I need to copy Greek from the annotations and paste it into a user 
variable definition in FrameMaker 6.0. Naturally, I get "". 
 
I have even tried pasting the text into a MS Word document (Greek font), then 
copying again and using Paste Special->Rich Text Format ... same results.
 
I haven't worked with FM6.0 for awhile, and thought I recalled doing this 
successfully in the past. Can anyone remind me of a working technique? Thank 
you.
