If a font doesn't have any OpenType features tables, then this change will do nothing.

If a font has more complete OpenType features tables, then you really want them included. They don't add much to the size of the font, but will make the character subset display much better, which is what you want if you are creating books for arbitrary users (i.e., sale or other distribution).

If you are creating books only for yourself, then don't embed fonts with a full set of OpenType features, or remove the features tables from the font before embedding.
