Blackboard greek mu not embedded in PDF

Question

I'm using the below coding and can see the Blackboard font mu symbol in Yap. When I create PDF the characters are not embedded. Could anyone guide me how to solve this problem.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[bbgreekl]{mathbbol}

\usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts,amssymb}

\begin{document}

Please check the character ``$\bbmu$'' mu symbol

\end{document}

Works fine for me in miktex 2.9.. It used bitmap fonts first but after installation of the bbold-type1 package it uses a type1 font. — Ulrike Fischer, Feb 24 '14 at 11:00

There is no “double struck mu” in Unicode; as far as I can tell there are slots for double struck gamma and pi, but nothing else for lowercase Greek letters.

Therefore it's impossible that software can deal with it. All you can get (and do) is a mu.
