I don't think that CEF fonts are very relevant. Are they really in use
out there?
Adobe Illustrator (at least the newer versions CS2 and CS3) does a good
job exporting SVG fonts (both full font sets and subsets) - so why not
use SVG fonts? Most SVG viewers out there - except Mozilla - support SVG
fonts - at least the d-attribute.

Oh, right. It's funny: when I searched for CEF I found posts by myself
from a few years back. Well, I know my brain isn't perfect. ;-) Anyway,
CEF is not properly described by Adobe. I haven't been able to find a
specification. The best hint you can find is this:
http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/50568.htm
So if anyone wanted to add support for this font format, that person is
up for some reverse-engineering or asking around in the FreeType
project:

I assume you mean "CFF", not "CEF". And yes, TrueType/OpenType fonts
with CFF glyphs (Compact Font Format) are not supported for PDF output,
yet. SVG fonts are the work-around. Better would be a patch against FOP
to add CFF support. ;-) Shouldn't be too difficult to implement but so
far nobody's itch has been big enough.

Hi.
I am exporting my illustrator file to svg. I prefer to embed my fonts,
but
it seems that adobe CEF type fonts are not supported when generating pdf
from batik?
Is this correct?
Should i just settle for using svg fonts?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
