On the other hand, OOo always embeds all fonts, and I suspect it embeds the complete set. That's why ps2pdf produces smaller files.
Yes, unfortunately it embeds the whole font like I mentioned before: ,----[ Previous Posting in this Thread ] | "Carlos E.

There is no configuration that I know of to tell OOo not to embeds a font.
I can't find one either. However, not embedding is bad idea also. Ideally OO should only embed the subset that the document uses. Charles
