RML (tm) is a product of ours and we have examples on how to do this
for our licensed customers.  "Tiny RML" uses different code (despite
sharing our DTD) and you'd have to ask them.

However our own User Guide has a section on how to embed fonts, and
there are tests in the test suite, if you are working at the open
source level.
