Well, I upgraded to 2.4.2 and I still have the hieroglyph issue.
But it is particular:

If I create a pdf using Gregorio and Lualatex, I have no problem printing that pdf. But if I PLACE that pdf in an InDesign File and print to an Adobe pdf printer OR I export to pdf ---> THEN I get the hieroglyphs.

AND it is true that I don't have that problem with another font.
If I use "print as graphic" on the printer settings, then I don't have the issue.

I agree that it looks like an issue with the font hinting.
I have High-Logic FontCreator, so I can edit the font - how would I fix the font?

The development version is quite stable. I, for one, recommend it over 2.3 (which is way out of date at this point). There should probably be a 2.4 release put into the download area and the current folder relinked to it, but I haven't gotten around to that yet. I've had enough trouble just checking my email recently due to Internet problems.

As to the screwy InDesign import, it looks like the problem is associated with the text font. At least from what I can see in the image you posted, the distortions are associated with particular letters in the lyrics. Each time the letter repeats the same distortion shows up. Have you tried using a different text font? You also might try a score with no text or a document with no scores using that text font to see if one or the other has the problem.

Henry,

You say "git version" ?

Maybe I'm missing a link somewhere.
There's this: http://download.gna.org/gregorio/releases/ - but the current (latest) version is version 2.3 from June 2013 However, in the development <http://download.gna.org/gregorio/releases/development/>folder there is: gregorio-git-20150228.exe <http://download.gna.org/gregorio/releases/development/gregorio-git-20150228.exe> Is that what you mean by "git" version? If that is the current one, maybe it should go in the "current" folder?

Anyway, I'll try that and see if it helps.

Are you using the current git version of Gregorio?

I know that there was a problem with the way the fonts were encoded in
older versions.

I don't have access to InDesign, so I can't really check, but if you're
not using the latest version, maybe that problem applies to you.

Has anyone ever figured out what is happening with this problem?

This is Kyrie IX compiled with Gregorio and TexLive 2013.

If I print the pdf file that TexLive made using Adobe
Reader, it prints perfectly.
however,
If I place the pdf file inside InDesign and export it, then
I have this problem with EVERY PDF created with
Gregorio/TexLive.

Please look at the attachments - there is the
TexLive-outputted pdf file and a jpeg of what it looks like
when I "place" the pdf in InDesign.
You can see that the pdf files are somehow scrambled.

But I have no troubles with other pdfs - only ones created
using TexLive.

I have a troubleshooting page on the GregoWiki:
http://www.gregoriochant.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/troubleshooting

Surely there is a cure for this besides converting the pdf
to a jpeg!
