It looks like pdftops creates font instances as it finds them in the pdf,
skipping only exact duplicates.

This pdf uses a number of non-embedded fonts, including AdobeSongStd-Light,
KozMinPr6N-Regular, MicrosoftYaHei, MicrosoftYaHei Bold, NSimSun, SimHei,
SimSun and some of the base14 fonts.  (Interestingly, it uses each of
Times-Roman, TimesNewRoman and TimesNewRomanPSMT; it seems the pdf has
a long and interesting edit history.)

Cairo, OTOH, only embeds the fonts it actually uses.
