[xep-support] problem with embedding fonts

Absolutely no idea. We know that this happens with certain fonts
on certain printers (PostScript only: no problems encountered so far
when printing to PCL devices). But we are still unable to trace
any defect in our PDF that makes it behave like this. 

As a wild guess, try to switch subsetting off for the font embedded.
Maybe our subsetting algorithm gets confused by the font sructure.

Anyhow, I would like to examine the problem in more detail.
Could you please send me a minimal sample FO file that produces 
such effect, with the offending font? Please send them to 
support at renderx.com or to me directly. I will also need to
know the exact model of the printer, and the version of the 
printer driver. 

Best regards,
