Thank you for your reply; unfortunately I got the same output when giving TTFReader the '-enc ansi' option.

I've been searching for ways to generate a Unicode cmap table and I've found
tools to translate cmap tables but nothing to create one in an existing font.
If anyone knows of an app that can do this, please let me know.

Yes. It is common for OCR and barcode fonts to omit the
cmap, for whatever reason.
Try the telliung TTFReader to use winansi encoding, assuming
the character range in the font fits the encodable range.
