To make things worse, ANY Type1 font to be treated as a symbolic font (whose charset flag is set to 2 in the 
associated .pfm file) will not be printed correctly 
(with the exception of Symbol and ZapfDingats) - any character will be replaced by 149 (decimal), which is 
the bullet character in WinAnsi encoding. 

Everything works as expected on Win9x and Win NT 4.
