Hi,
the file lwip-dep.eps doesn't contain any fonts, only a reference to
Times-Roman.  When I create a PDF file using ghostscript, Times-Roman
is referenced but not embedded.


  name                    type      emb sub uni object ID
  ----------------------- --------- --- --- --- ---------
  Times-Roman             Type 1    no  no  no       8  0


If I ask ghostscript to embed the fonts, I get

  name                    type      emb sub uni object ID
  ----------------------- --------- --- --- --- ---------
  SVMFZO+Times-Roman      Type 1C   yes yes no       8  0

and the embedded font is actually "Nimbus Roman No9 L Regular":

  /FullName (Nimbus Roman No9 L Regular) readonly def
  /FamilyName (Nimbus Roman No9 L) readonly def
  [...]
  /FontName /SVMFZO+Times-Roman def

Regards,
  Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
