I'm using `\euro` from `eurosym` package because I don't like the default symbol.
The problem is that the dafault symbol is searchable in the pdf, the symbol from `eurosym` is not.
Is there a easy way to associate `\euro` to € for searching purpose only? (For "easy" I mean a package that gives a macro like `\associate{\euro}{€}`, without compiling with XeTeX or LuaLaTeX):
```
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{eurosym}
\begin{document}
Computer Modern default symbol €
Symbol form \texttt{eurosym} package \euro
\end{document}
```

The font uses e for the euro, you can map it for this font to the unicode code point of the €:
```
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{eurosym}
\pdfglyphtounicode{tfm:feymr10/e}{20AC}
\begin{document}
Computer Modern default symbol €
Symbol form \texttt{eurosym} package \euro
\end{document}
```
