Re: re-generate the PDF with standard non-embedded fonts

There are tools for parsing PDFs like the python tools listed at https://www.binpress.com/tutorial/manipulating-pdfs-with-python/167


You might be able to load the PDF, remove the objects with the embedded fonts, and write a new file, but if the embedded fonts are subsets or have non-standard encodings, the text might become unintelligible.

Then you cannot use Ghostscript.
