Strange problem I am loading an OTF (open type font from file) and it is rendering strange characters

1. I have a PDF with a couple of embedded, subsetted fonts, one bold and one standard. These PDFs are provided.

2. I create a TDebenuPDF (FPDF) and load the file SourceDoc := FPDF.LoadFromFile(AFileName);

3. I create a new Document TargetDoc := FPDF.NewDocument;

4. I make the new doc seleted - FPDF.SelectDocument(TargetDoc);

5. I Call FindFonts(FPDF); (do some other stuff to hold them in a list)

6. I add two fonts from file. These are the same fonts that are in the original, but not subsetted.

7. I copy pages using CopyRangeEx, a page at a time, from source to target.

8. Set the font based on the fontid of the font loaded from file

9. write some text, but the characters aren't correct. 

Any ideas?
