Yes, I also tried it with Unicode fonts, and it takes a lot longer to generate the file. It seems like embedding fonts in general is a slow process.

Subject: Is embedding fonts significantly slower?
Hi all,
Has anyone benchmarked the performance of FOP 0.92 when embedding fonts
versus not embedding fonts? I just started doing this with the DejaVu
fonts in order to get some more Unicode glyphs and it seems a lot slower.
I could quantify this further if you think that's necessary.
I need to know in order to set expectations of the people receiving the
PDFs. Alternatively, I could use the Unicode fonts only when I have an
unusual glyph in the text (like arrows, etc) since the documentation says
it will only embed the necessary characters from a TTF.
Or perhaps it using Unicode/CID versus Adobe-defaults/WinAnsi that's the
the cause?
any pointers appreciated.
