applications can display these fonts. An application can get
a font-handle of a base14 font any time by invoking Doc#font.

than those which use other type of fonts. Moreover, a processing

overhead that loads the font.
However, base14 fonts are only available to display latin1
character set. To use other character set, an application have
to use other type of font.
