           Summary: pdftops - same font is embedded multiple times into
                    resulting postscript file

When pdftops converts the attached PDF file into PS with -r 300 -level3 command
line parameters, and when SimSun TTF font is available in the system, SimSun
font gets embedded ~80 times into the resulting PS file, making it grow up to
~2 Gb, which not every printer would be able to congest.

It would be nice to have it embedded just one time or just a subset of
characters.

Tested on poppler 0.18.4, 0.19.0, 0.20.0, 0.22.3, 0.22.4 on Ubuntu 12.04 x64
and Ubuntu 10.04 x64.
