Hi Rob,
You've done a great job in developing this feature. Before voting though
I'd like to understand why the default is not to subset Type 1 fonts.
Most users will want the smallest output file size possible. Not
enabling it by default is also inconsistent with True Type fonts, whose
default is to subset. This inconsistency could lead to confusion.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi All,
Following on from the last failed vote for adding Type 1 subset
support, I have now put forward a modified patch and am ready to try
this again. The patch went up on Monday to address the issues and
comments made by Vincent and Luis. This vote will last 5 working days
and will finish next Wednesday at the same time.
As always if you have any concerns or find anything please let me
know. If they are small I will try and address the issue before the
vote is finalized in order to avoid repeating this again. Please note
that all type 1 fonts will default to full embedding unless you use
the embedding-mode="subset" as per one of the recommendations from the
last vote.
Here is my vote: +1
Best Regards,
Robert Meyer
