As some readers may know, I produce what I call typecase_ pdfs. They are intended to assist people using various languages in applications which do not have an Insert Symbol facility (for example, WordPad).
Please consider the following typecase_ pdfs, two of which have been available from links in other forum posts for some time and one for Latvian which I produced this morning.

Each of them was produced using Serif PagePlus X2 and my Quest text font version 2.21 which is the version available on the web at this time.

Recently I have uploaded version 0.24 of my Poetry font.
http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~ngo/POETRY.TTF
Also on the web is my Chronicle Text font, at present version 0.26.

Here is the problem.
If I copy and paste from the pdf to WordPad and then format using various fonts in turn, some combinations of pdf and font work and some do not.
For example, copying and pasting from the pdf to WordPad, works for Esperanto for Quest text and for Poetry and for Chronicle Text.
For example, copying and pasting from the pdf to WordPad, works for Welsh for Quest text and for Poetry and for Chronicle Text.
However, copying and pasting from the pdf to WordPad, does not work for Latvian for Quest text nor for Poetry but does work for Chronicle Text. It also works for my Galileo Lettering font.
I am thinking that I may have made some error in producing some of the fonts and wonder if someone is able to work out what it is please?
