Combining them means that the size of the final PDF may be smaller but
the size
of the intermediate PDFs will be larger. In my experiment, even if there is a bug in gs's full set font
embedding, the
disk size that `make doc` eats has increased.
I did not check that, but I would expect an increase in disk usage for the build.
If I understand correctly, `--bigpdfs` / `-b` has two effects. One is to embed full set (non-subset) font. The other is to define and use some encodings for Emmentaler.
It also changes the way emmentaler glyphs are printed. With --bigpdfs we use the "show" postscript operator, without it we still use "glyphshow". And the three emmentaler fonts for every size in the intermediate versions of our pdfs are not 3 copies of the full emmentaler-xx font but are three different fonts made of emmentaler-xx glyphs. Those subsets must not be further subsetted. No, it is senseless to split -b into separate options. https://codereview.appspot.com/325630043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
