Embedded font-subset sometimes fails

I have several times used Font Squirrel Generator to subset a large font if I only need a few characters, and usually it displays fine in ADE and SONY reader on the desktop. It's great to shave off 85% of the font-file size. (Although sometimes you get scrambled or missing glyphs, I guess probably because the original is missing some metrics or something.)

Now I have one that displays beautifully in ADE, but not at all in Sony software. I thought Sony reader software uses the ADE engine, so I am confused.

Any thoughts you'd like to share with this bewildered soul?

OOPS. I posted this in the wrong forum, could a moderator please move it to EPUB or Workshop, thanks.
