Okay, Win32DetectGS.exe now works as expected. Regarding Your
> Please comment.
I have an open mind about what solution will be implemented, but as Stefan
told: According to the PDF specs, every PDF viewer must be able to handle 14
standard
fonts even if they are not embedded. We are able to do it under Unix with
fontconfig, but under Windows we have at least a problem with the ZapfDingbats.
It's not completely true that poppler has no external files. At least the CID
maps for CJK fonts are in the poppler data dir. So I wouldn't care, if it is
recommended to install the fonts under Windows there too. Would also be nice if
the fonts could be delivered with the poppler data dir, but that's probably a
vain wish. At least I myself don't want to discuss that with Leonard or anybody
else.
