I have set

LW35 ADOBE

in my local updmap.cfg as suggested by Ralf. Now this makes perfect
sense to me---this setting is for users that have _bought_ all those
fonts from Adobe.

Could there be a third alternative? I think something _is_ embedded in
the file converted by epstopdf. But it's not the same that is still
embedded (URW Palladio) by mptopdf even with

pdftexDownloadBase14 false

in updmap.cfg. In case you're interested you can find both files here:

Well, then I'll take the URW replacement for the time beeing. :)
