(1) Adobe's applications produce PostScript and EPS with embedded Type 1 fonts, Type 42 fonts (TrueType), and CID-encoded (double byte encoded) fonts. All of these formats may have had origins in OpenType fonts used in InDesign documents. (2) The specification of how fonts are placed in PostScript files is in the PostScript Language Reference. We provide no other such documentation. (3) Adobe does not provide sample code or APIs for what you are requesting. Sorry! On the other hand, both Adobe and third parties provide plenty of PDF creation libraries that provide such font embedding facilities. - Dov
