Yes, poppler is clearly one of the things that embedded cmap and needs unbundling (I *think* at least fontforge does the same, it's been a long time since I checked, but cmap embedding was widespread, and the legal aspects dubious before Adobe released a separate cmap project after some Debian prodding IIRC) -- Nicolas Mailhot -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
