Resolution: Later Priority: 5 Submitted By: Hartmut Henkel (hhenkel) Assigned to: The Thanh Han (hanthethanh) Summary: HZ font expansion by text matrix manipulation
Initial Comment: Use textmatrix Tm instead of /FontMatrix for font expansion. Then a font file will be embedded only once for all expansion factors. Gives smaller PDF files. Works then also for non-embedded fonts. TrueType not tried yet. Rough patch only, incomplete, work in progress, no warranty, not for production.

I would love to see it included. I've tested it a bit and did not find any problems (I'm also using it for the pre-built microtype documentation on CTAN).
