As with Word, if you have the fonts installed on your hard drive, and
they are embeddable, then they will be fine in the PDF and printed
output.

So I checked. If you have the font CommercialPiBT installed, you can
produce a right arrow (sort of an ugly spud) by holding down the Alt key
and typing 174 on your keypad.
If you have the font Wingdings3 installed, you can produce a very nice
looking right arrow by holding down the Alt key and typing 176 on your
keypad.
What happens to those arrows when you print or make a PDF, I shall leave
to your imagination.
