Some font files not only won't subset, but even cause conversion to fail if "subset fonts" is selected. I solve this by picking a similar appearance font and check that it has any extended non-Latin-Roman characters needed.

I think this is a more common problem with some non-alphabetic fonts, but I've had it years ago on a font with just regular Latin-Roman characters plus áéíóú ÁÉÍÓÚ. It was a font obtained maybe in 1994 on Windows 3.x, so hardly surprising.
