I meant turn your encoding into unicode and then use a normal
unicode font to display the information. Or or the custom
characters you have so unusal that there really aren't any unicode

Yes, certainly, if you can map the text to Unicode that would be
preferable. If not, then the private use area is available. If not
that, then perhaps the custom glyph generator.
