[pdftex] inclusion of PDF file fails

[Werner LEMBERG]

[pdftex 3.1415926-2.3-1.40.12]


Folks,


the attached file `BFEx.pdf' has been created by LilyPond.  Compiling
this simple document

  test

  \hbox{\pdfximage{BFEx.pdf}\pdfrefximage\pdflastximage}

  test

  \bye

with `pdftex' causes the following log lines:

  ...

  (./x.tex [1{/home/wl/.texlive2011/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map}
   <./BFEx.pdf>] )</usr/local/backup/TeXLive/Master/texmf-dist/fonts/type1/public
  /amsfonts/cm/cmr10.pfb></usr/local/backup/TeXLive/Master/texmf-dist/fonts/type1
  /urw/ncntrsbk/uncr8a.pfb

  pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file /usr/local/backup/TeXLive/Master/texmf-dist/fonts/
  type1/urw/ncntrsbk/uncr8a.pfb): glyph `Eng' undefined

  pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file /usr/local/backup/TeXLive/Master/texmf-dist/fonts/
  type1/urw/ncntrsbk/uncr8a.pfb): glyph `afii61352' undefined

  ...

I consider this a bug in pdftex.

While the `CenturySchL-Roma' font embedded in `BFEx.pdf' is version
1.06 (file `c059013l.pfb' from ghostscript), pdftex uses `uncr8a.pfb'
from TeXLive, which is version 1.05.  Obviously, version 1.05 misses
all Cyrillic glyphs.  IMHO, the right solution is to allow font
merging only if the font versions are identical.

Is there a workaround available?  Maybe some code which could be
easily added to texinfo.tex (which we use for documentation)?
