I think of PDF as digital paper, and I figure that if I'm printing to PDF, the implication is that the document should be in an archival form. When I export to PDF from LibreOffice, I always use the PDF/A-1a option. If it only embeds the characters used in the document, that accomplishes the purpose as far as I'm concerned.

Well, to answer Rickie's question, LibreOffice does have File > Properties > Fonts > [x] Font Embedding. But it made a < 1MB file into a 21 MB file. Ouch. No, not uploading that ! Not sure if it was contagious to the PDF Export or not ... that didn't bloat up, but if it only includes the used characters ? (You tell me ! Only needed on the handwriting typoes at the very end.)
