That's good advice, but non-fully-embedded PDFs are already in the wild, especially in the academic field. It would be a shame if the FOSS stack could not render them correctly because of some technical details. And in this specific case the ad-hoc fix would be a trivial fix in the font files. - Fabian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
