-Whether to embed base 14 fonts.
-
-There are several base font defined in PDF standards, which are supposed to be provided by the PDF reader.

-If this switch is on, local matched font will be used and embedded; otherwise only font names are exported such that web browsers may try to find proper fonts themselves.

-Similar as `--embed-base-font` but for non-base fonts. If this switch is off, the corresponding fonts must be installed in the client side.
+Specify whether the local matched fonts, for fonts not embedded in PDF, should be embedded into HTML. 
 
+If this switch is off, only font names are exported such that web browsers may try to find proper fonts themselves, and that might cause issues about incorrect font metrics.
