Comment ballon text shows musical notes on import to Word 2003 (Win)

Processor: intel
Does anyone have any idea on what is causing this problem and what can be done to fix? (From my testing, it looks like a bug):
- Create a simple doc on Word 2003 on Windows (could be 1 paragraph).
- Open the doc in Word 2008 for Mac. Set Track Changes on (if off). Do some editing.
- Open doc in Word 2003 on XP, and balloon text headings for changes show musical notes instead of author name (a real pain for collaborative mark-ups with everyone else I work with).
This problem appears as if the font used for ballon headings on the Mac is not compatible (i.e. same type) as on Windows so symbol characters are substituted. But you can't change the default type used for the balloons by Word 2008 on the Mac, so I'm stuck here.
Also, in checking compatibility, I have 2003 on Windows set to "Windows 2003" in Options. On the Mac, I have the options set for "2000-2004 and X," yet the report throws an error and says that I'm set for compato with Word 60/95. I can't get rid of this, and have set Prefs correctly (defaults, also resetting the compato check engine prefs). This may not be related, but not sure... Any ideas?
