Hi Tomasz,

I could be wrong here, since I haven't tested this myself, but I'm
pretty sure that currently there's no way to do what you're wanting
without embedding the font. The Base14Fonts only look like they
support WinAnsi encoding (with the obvious exception of ZapfDingbats
and Symbol).

Hope that helps,

Mehdi
