Summary: FILESAVE: LO embeds non-used fonts
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified

Sample file (LO 4.1.2.3, Fedora 19 64-bit)
When activating fonts embedding, LO embeds some non-used fonts, making the file
very large. It's mostly annoying on Windows, where LO embeds SimSum font which
size is about 15 MB (!).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a new document (in Writer\Calc\Impress\Draw).
2. Write some text (like 'Hello World').
3. Goto File->Properties...->Font, and select 'Embed fonts in the document'.
4. Save the document.
5. Check the file size, which is very large (especially if you're using
Windows).
5. (Optional) Unzip the document, and inspect the 'Fonts' sub-directory. You
can see there many font files, although you've used only one font in the
document.
I'm attaching a sample document created with LO 4.1.2.3 under Fedora 19
(64-bit). The document uses only 'Liberation Serif Regular' font, but the
document file contains also the Bold\Italic variations, as well as 'Liberation
Sans' (all variations) and Lohit Devanagari (two copies of the same file!).
See also Bug 70192 comment 2 for a files created under Windows, one of them is
of 18.2 MB, while it's a simple presentation with just one slide, that uses
only 'Liberation Sans Regular'. After unzipping you can see that it contains
also the non-used 'SimSum' font (14.6 MB) and 'AR PL KaitiM Big5' (9.9 MB).
This bug also confirmed in Bug 70312, so starting as NEW.
