You should look at encoding.lisp and search for "endash" and "emdash" i the
encoding you use.
You can also make your own encoding by putting the "endash" and "emdash" in
place of characters you don't use.

I've added a *default-encoding* special variable to cl-pdf to specify a
default encoding for the fonts.
(it's on the repository)
