This is exactly what I'm currently thinking about. This

Hi Victor,
I think that Jeremias covered most of your questions.
This is a related issue to handling the font state.
For embedded fonts it needs to create a font metrics and (at least in
the case of pdf) enable the font to be embedded.
So find out what font metrics are needed by FOP then the co
