If you go back and reread the OP's message, you'll see Calibre is installed and is part of the process.

The problem here is that Calibre's editor doesn't differentiate between regular, bold, italic, & bolditalic. So you don't get proper subsetting. You get get such by using the Calibre to do the subsetting.

So yes, it does seem to be inventing a square wheel.
