 Usually the fonts are embedded OK for Lulu. You can avoid this problem
 by submitting your file as postscript (ps), which will work.

One potential source of non-embedded fonts is figures (usually in PDF
format) with non-embedded fonts. If the PDF reader tells you there are
fonts in the document which are not embedded, check any PDF figures the
same way. The solution for non-embedded fonts in PDF figures depends on
the source of the figures: if you didn't generate the figures yourself,
embedding the fonts could be tricky. The ultimate solution is to
convert the PDF figures to raster images (PNG is best) at high enough
resolution to meet your final requirements. But this can generate very
large PDF files.

This is solved by marking text insets as special and using 
Insert-File-External Material (Alt-i e m),
selecting Xfig for template and tuning the scale.
Lyx manages the .fig file combined exports for you.
Layout for Text/math in the figure uses the defaults settings of the document,

I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure that if you use pslatex as the

It depends: embedded if you use pdflatex, not embedded if you use dvips+ps2pdf
(and I guess, if your printer is a PS printer).
It seems logical not to embed when you know that the fonts are in the printer,
for a process which delegates all possible tasks downstream (eps inclusion, font
inclusion,...). Unless dvips can be tuned to embed ?

way to control or change this?

Thanks

With acrobat reader, use "File->Document properties->Fonts"
Then click on "all fonts".
There you see which fonts are embedded, and which are not.

Lyx produces normally embedded fonts.
The only source of non embedded fonts I currently have is xfig, if I use plain 
export to eps or pdf.
This is solved by marking text insets as "special" and using 
Insert->File->External Material (Alt-i e m),
selecting Xfig for template and tuning the scale.
Lyx manages the .fig file combined exports for you.
Layout for Text/math in the figure uses the defaults settings of the document,
so the fonts are embedded all right.

Also the pdffonts tools included with poppler-utils (or poppler) or xpdf 
lists the fonts used in a PDF with name, type, embedded, subset, 
ToUnicode, and font dictionary object ID.

I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure that if you use pslatex as the 
document default font, it will reduce (but not zero out) the number/size 
of embedded fonts.

It depends: embedded if you use pdflatex, not embedded if you use dvips+ps2pdf
(and I guess, if your printer is a PS printer).
It seems logical not to embed when you know that the fonts are in the printer,
for a process which delegates all possible tasks downstream (eps inclusion, font
inclusion,...). Unless dvips can be tuned to embed ?
