Thanks for your answer.
I was in the last days of finishings that new issue of our magazine,
and could not find the time to try your hint,
but it reads nice.

It's nice but strange that python doesnt use the fontembeding value of the SLA
but uses that same property when set in python.

It would be great because all fonts cannot be subset,
and embeded fonts that have missing glyphs
force the big printers to import the PDF in Adobe In Design before priting
which, i discovered, is not 100% secure.
So i wish to vectorize now.
