An alternative to this (if you never chance the size of your note font) would be to create a µ symbol and just insert the symbol in your note.


An even better alternative is to switch away from the PTC "FONT" since it is not a real font file (thus the problems) and move to a monospaced font. There are several out there (off the top of my head, there is one in the Lucidia family provided with Windows and one in the Liberation family that was developed for Red Hat and is a free font family).
