Unicode characters not supported when rendering EMF+ in XPS/PDF as vector

I have an EMF+ file, which has some unicode characters embedded in it. The unicode characters only seem to render correctly when XpsSaveOptions.MetafileRenderingMode is set to ‘Bitmap’. When I set it to ‘Vector’, the unicode characters appear as boxes.

The same problem occurs in PDF, but Docx output is fine.

Here are my save options:

XpsSaveOptions.MetafileRenderingOptions.EmfPlusDualRenderingMode = EmfPlusDualRenderingMode.EmfPlus
XpsSaveOptions.MetafileRenderingOptions.RenderingMode = MetafileRenderingMode.Vector
XpsSaveOptions.UseAntiAliasing = True
XpsSaveOptions.UseHighQualityRendering = True

I have attached a file containing the EMF, and the XPS output rendered as bitmap and vector. The unicode characters in the title of the vector image do not render correctly. The font used is “Microsoft Sans Serif”.
