--- Comment #12 from Nicolas Mailhot <[email protected]> ---
BTW OTF *is* the OpenType (SFNT) format used to ship CFF outlines nowadays so
unless upstream did something really weird with its OTF files they satisfy :

#    According to upstream, Ghostscript needs only Type 1 fonts to work
properly.
#    It can use TTF or OTF fonts as substitutions as well in case the Type 1
#    fonts are missing, but the substitution is not (and can't be) guaranteed
to
#    be absolutely flawless, unless the fonts use the CFF outlines:
