Do PDF's generated by XeTeX and LuaTeX "subset the font" in this way?
Yes, this is the default. So unless you have manually interfered, the included fonts are always subsetted.
I'm interested in the other way around, how can I tell luatex (or context) to not subset the font,
\enabledirectives[fonts.embedall]
Thanks.
and I read that some recent version of PDF specification allow embedding of unchanged opentype fonts (as compared to converting them to type1 fonts), does luatex support (or plan to support) that feature?
In LuaTeX, we are not converting to Type1, OpenType fonts are always embedded as CID Type0C, Truetype as CID TrueType. But some OT tables are stripped for efficiency reasons (GSUB and GPOS, for example).
I can't tell a difference :) I'm just interested in being able to extract the full font from PDF with all tables and stuff (they are my fonts, so the legal side is sorted out), but I don't actually have a use case for that :) Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer
