15       The following information is listed for each font:
16
17       name   the font name, exactly as given in  the  PDF  file  (potentially
18              including a subset prefix)

26
27       sub    "yes" if the font is a subset
28
29       uni    "yes"  if  there  is an explicit "ToUnicode" map in the PDF file
30              (the absence of a ToUnicode map doesn't  necessarily  mean  that
31              the text can't be converted to Unicode)
