Here's what I have:
7.3.1 CIDFonts
For all Type 2 CIDFonts, the CIDFont dictionary shall contain a
CIDToGIDMap entry that shall be a stream mapping from CIDs to glyph
indices or the name Identity, as described in Table 5.13 of the PDF
Reference.
NOTE 1 - Only fonts whose characters are referenced within a file need
to be embedded in that file. Furthermore, as stated in Section 7.5 font
programs can be for font subsets, as long as the embedded programs
provide glyph definitions for all characters referenced within the file.
Embedding the font programs allows any PDF/A compliant reader to
reproduce correctly all glyphs in the manner in which they were
originally published without reference to possibly ephemeral external
resources.
Furthermore, Acrobat doesn't complain.
