           Summary: Inkscape PS/EPS/PDF files exported on win32 have too
                    many fonts embedded
           Product: cairo
           Version: 1.8.6
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: win32 backend
        AssignedTo: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org
        ReportedBy: suv-sf at users.sourceforge.net
         QAContact: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org


PS/EPS/PDF files created with Inkscape 0.47pre versions on win32 platforms
using the cairo renderer are far bigger in size than the same SVG files
exported with the same Inkscape version on osx.

«Cairo should be merging multiple uses of the same font into the same
subset.»

Please see the discussion in these two Inkscape bug reports for more details:
