To Bob, 

I have been substituting Times for quotes and whatever other punctuation marks don't display correctly. That is a hassle in some of my university books that are heavy in text. 

To Samuel, 

Evidently not! 

I checked the Character Map and found that the entire row contained odd characters instead of the expected symbols. Most of them look like greek letters. 

I think I will give up on these font families and inform affected schools that they need to select a different font. 

Thanks for all your help.
