I have generated PDF files from some plots with labels. The font for
the label ends up embedded as a PostScript font (according to pdffonts).
Is there a way to use Type 1 fonts?
Here's an example:

#lang racket
(require plot)
(plot (function sin (- pi) pi #:label "y = sin(x)")
#:out-file "sin.pdf")
> racket sin.rkt
(object:2d-plot-snip% ...)
> pdffonts sin.pdf
name type emb sub uni

OZFXPV+CairoFont-0-0 CID Type 0C yes yes yes
5 0
UEATNW+CairoFont-1-0 CID Type 0C yes yes yes

As a work-around it seems I can generate PS and convert:
> more sin.rkt
#lang racket
(require plot)
(plot (function sin (- pi) pi #:label "y = sin(x)")
#:out-file "sin.ps")
> ps2pdf -dEPSCrop sin.ps
> pdffonts sin.pdf
name type emb sub uni

TKRSLQ+f-0-0 Type 1C yes yes no

WYAULZ+f-1-0 Type 1C yes yes no

I don't think there's anything I can do about this in plot. (It just
draws text on a device context after setting the font, and I don't see a
way to change the PDF font in the `font%' constructor.) It's possible
that a different font family will export differently, though. If that's
the case, setting the `plot-font-family' parameter could work around this.
