I wondered if it would be fairly simple to use .Rprofile to overwrite `pdf` with
your own version that sets the value of `fonts' to a call to `options` and
then also set the options("pdf_embed")-value to your choice of
font(s), possibly defaulting to the current values of `names(pdfFonts())`.
Looking at the code for `pdf`, however, I see that a call to `check.options`
might require a mere complex set of parameters perhaps involving disabling the
check on the fonts option value.
I ended up wondering if instead the function to modify might not be
`grDevices:::initPSandPDFfonts`
