The "OperatorSubstitution" option affects all characters which are in the base 
ASCII set (including, for example, brackets and braces, plus, minus, star, and
a number of others).

Not sure what characters you're talking about, as they seem to have gotten 
muddled in the post.  But if, for example, you're wanting something like the
\[Times] and \[Divide] character to come from another font, I don't believe
there's a way to do that.
