Re: [tex-live] Embedding TrueType fonts in manuals

[karl@freefriends.org (Karl Berry)]

    I think that depends on the setting. If that is not the case
    by default, users can override the default by

    dvipdfmx -f dlbase14.map ...

In TeX Live, Master/texmf/dvipdfm/dvipdfmx.cfg includes
dvipdfm.map, which has the entries for the base14, as in
pcrr8r    8r    ucrr8a

So I think the base14 fonts should be embedded by default in TL.

Thanks,
