i think it's only possible through embedding. or at least that was the case a few years back when i looked into it, it's a PDF limitation. > 2) if not, is it possible to reduce the size of files? embed subset of the > fonts? i believe that to be possible by grabbing a font that is preinstalled by the pdf reader, dropping all character except that you need, and then using a your-package:put-string that locally sets the embedded crippled font when encounters a polish character. but it's not trivial and there may be many potential traps and even show-stoppers... so, unless it's a special use-case, i'd just ignore the extra size and accept it as the sideffect of using pdf. the beginning of this file has some code on how to load a font: http://dwim.hu/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi?r=HEAD%20hu.dwim.presentation;a=headblob;f=/integration/cl-typesetting.lisp -- • attila lendvai • PGP: 963F 5D5F 45C7 DFCD 0A39 -- “Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction.
