There may even be an off-chance that some of those PG Music fonts might contain this or that flat sign ...



True - the flat symbol is available in the following locations in the following PG fonts:

! or chr 033 in PGChords
b or chr 098 in PGJazz
b or chr 098 in PGMusic F
„ or chr 0132 in PGTextj

PGTextj is the only generally usable text font among them, the rest are designed for constructing notation.

I have a similar situation in my *Dings font suites where there are 2 fonts of the 6 in each suite designed for text use: the *Text and *TextEuro fonts. I note with some amusement that I have also used chr 0132 for the flat symbol.
