I'm having a similar problem. In a font I'm developing, some characters
won't print in XeLaTeX, even though they are fine in Word and Notepad
(Windows, obviously, not Mac). They display correctly if I set the font
in my editor (TeXworks) to be the font I'm working on, but they don't
show in the TeX-generated PDF on screen or in print. Word puts them
into a PDF without trouble. I doublechecked the Unicode values in my
font editor and saw nothing amiss. It so happens that some of these
characters in the PUA and others in Plane 1; I'm not sure whether that
has anything to do with the problem.

Three things. First, here is a minimal file that fails to print correctly
%%===8><---%%
% !TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode
% !TEX TS-program = XeLaTeX
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\setmainfont{PFChampionScriptPro-Regular}
\begin{document}
% This prints:
This is some text
% This does not print, though it previews:
\char"EF6C\par %% Also tried using XeTeXglyph
\end{document}
%%===8><---%%
Second, I tried the old XeLaTeX-xdv2pdf engine with the same results.
Third, I tried the brute force approach:
\font\test="PFChampionScriptPro-Regular" at 18pt \test
Likewise to no avail.

I'm trying to use a font with some ornaments in it -- they are rather large and
complex. I'm using TeXLive2010, and XeLaTeX that shipped with it. I am also on
a Mac, running Mac OS X 10.6.6.
The ornaments preview perfectly, but will not print. I have cleaned out the
font caches. I have reinstalled the font. I am able to print the characters
from other applications.
This is a real puzzle, and new to me. Does anyone have any suggestions?
