I think it depends on the type of font. I found this in the changelog for
Cairo 1.2.0 (and Racket uses 1.10.x).

    And in the PDF and PostScript backends, both type1 and TrueType fonts
    will be directly embedded in the output file. This results in higher-quality
    previews and better performance.
