Default Why do symbols change when pdf'ing or changing printers?

After I finish a word document and pdf the document using adobe acrobat and
then open the pdf document, sometimes the symbols and bullets change from the
original look. For example a bullet will be a different symbol. Also the
page numbering changes from "page 1 of 12" for example to "page 1 of 1". I
have tried going under "Options" and clicking "embed fonts".

Any suggestions?
