Hi Tom,
Thanks for the reply. 
No, the font doesn't contain the glyphs... but if I had set the same
as a device font instead of embedding it, the characters for the
Japanese/Chinese/non-latin characters appear. 
So, if the font's not embedded and if characters are encountered that
is not in the glyph set of the font assigned, the player  looks for a font
on the client machine that does support those characters... but this
beautiful mechanism seems to go away once we use an embedded font -
that's the problem I want to work around. 
Please let me know if there's something I have missed out.
