Bummer...Kindle3 Phonetic Symbol won't SHOW...

I have installed the latest font hacks and changed some of the fonts accordingly. So far, everything about the English and CJK fonts looks fantastic on this little toy, but the annoying thing came after I looked a little closer at the dictionary. I installed several dictionaries including Oxford American Dictionary and Modern English Dictionary, etc. But among all of them, some their phonetic symbols are missing. There are no weird symbols, no junk information, just blank placeholders I assume.

I searched the internet for a while and fumbled through a lot of possible solutions. But nothing happend. I even used font creator to include the missing characters into several fonts files. But still, They just wont appear....

Somebody help me. here is my configuration for the font hack. Could anyone kindly point out which font is in control of all the dictionary phonetics? I tried Sans_Regular.ttf, no good...
