@frostschutz :

Don't know if this may help, but here is how I subset fonts with fontforge, using a script which:

1) open the font with Open()
2) unselect all characters with SelectNone()
3) select all needed characters with SelectMore()
4) invert the selection with SelectInvert()
5) delete the selected characters with Clear()
6) create a new font with Generate()

If some needed characters are references, you need to selected both the characters and the referenced characters.

as an example: a 1252 characters, 138KB truetype fonts subsetted to 145 characters then weights 32KB
