Hi, I started work on TrueType subsetting, but it does not work very good yet. I did not have much time the last month to fix this stuff, but I hope I continue working on it in January. The subsetting itself is not done using FreeType. If you interested in the relevant classes take a look at PdfTTFWriter.h and PdfTTFWriter.cpp
I would be very happy, if you could send your CIDFont code so that I can
integrate it in PoDoFo. The font handling is currently one of the weakest
points of PoDoFo and CID fonts will be missed by everyone trying to do
unicode font output.
best regards,
Dom
