Nope. That's not how it works.
Yep, subsetting takes care of that though. It will remove all the unused characters, so the font file should shrink dramatically.  |
In case someone reads this post and not any of the others that Tex has linked, the challenge with the Adobe-->InDesign-->eBook font embedding is that
the fonts are encrypted and thus, will not pass ePUBcheck.
So, sure, the fonts are embedded, as Adobe so blithely assures you and yes, the ePUB works--but you can't sell it anywhere. Because every vendor on the planet requires ePUBcheck so you can't get there from here.
(Unless you deliberately hack the encrypting, but that's a different discussion. We've had that discussion here too and I'll simply stand by my interpretation that since Adobe expressly says that you can't unencrypt the fonts, that
that's what they mean.)
