I'm not sure what you're talking about here.

What are you referring to with "embed OpenType fonts"?  I did a
search, and found nothing about this.

These are probably separate issues (or should be)

For example, one solution for the CUPs problem is for CUPSs to
maintain their own copy of FreeMono,
(in whatever form they prefer), but separate from the system fonts.

Cheers!
