Adobe doesn't support bitmap fonts either, but that doesn't stop me from using them in my terminals. This is only limited to a single producer of software. It will be interesting to see if any other generators of PDFs will pay any attention...
Several of my clients are already moving their entire catalogs to new fonts
Fortunately Adobe’s PDF specification is an open, public standard (a surprisingly altruistic move for a company seemingly ran with the same level of malevolence as if Lucifer got himself an MBA) so now, in 2023, there’s no shortage of high-fidelity PDF viewers and virtual printer drivers. Browser JS-based PDF viewers are the best thing to happen in this area in decades - remember all those Acrobat Reader splash screens in the early-2000s?
Adobe is focused on capturing the media producing pipeline, and there is where it puts most of it efforts.
