| Issue 89: | Merge already subsetted fonts? | |

This does not fit nicely in the template but I try. 1. Generate a file containing pictures, say with pdflatex and some latex graphics package. Some fonts will be included in a subsetted form. 2. Extract the pictures with tools such as pdfseparate and pdfcrop (or similar tools, like pdftk) 3. Include these pictures in a different document I would expect all instances of a given font to be merged. However, only those whose names match EXACTLY are merged. So, if I call pdffonts on the file and get several instances of "DFLHBQ+Georgia CID TrueType? Identity-H yes yes yes 346 0", after invoking pdfsizeopt there is only one. But this does not work with different sub settings. So if I have embedded and subsetted "SZVXDT+Georgia" and "EGVBUZ+Georgia" they are not merged. It would be nice to have an option to merge such fonts as well. (I am aware that this could be quite tricky.)
