.... after perusing the pdf spec 1.4 I think I see what's wrong. It seems we 
were using subset names of the form

SUBSET+TAHOMA+0
SUBSET+TAHOMA+1

etc etc

from the spec it seems as though we should be using the 6 character uppercase 
letter tag to differentiate the subsets eg the above could properly be

AAAAAA+TAHOMA
AAAAAB+TAHOMA
AAAAAC+......

I have made a small change in the attached file, ttfonts_py.zip, can you try 
putting ttfonts.py from this in your reportlab/pdfbase folder and see if it 
improves the ability of Professional at editing?
