A pdf was opened from publisher in Photo are displayed destroyed. Not so nice. („Bitte” and „bitte”)

Hi There appears to be a problem when I copy text produced by Publisher. When the text is pasted into a plain text editor many of the characters are producing squares and in some text editors some characters are replaced with "??" It doesn't happen to all characters and I am not using any special characters such as accented characters or extended characters. I've noticed it happens with the characters "ti" and "ft" when they appear in a paragraph together. Also I have headings which use "small caps" style and all characters also come out as squares. This is quite a serious issue for me as it's quite possible people viewing my PDF may copy and paste the text - this is potentially a deal breaker for me in terms of InDesign vs Publisher. Has anybody experienced the same problem and are you aware of any work around? Kind Regards Musaffar
