Description
|
The internally used names/identifiers of fonts embedded into PDF files varies.
The order of embedded fonts can also be different.
.
The order is only different if the date differs (set by TZ environment
variable for example). If the date is the same, then the font name
is reproducible. Difference in hour/minute/second resolution seems
to be irrelevant.
.
The font name occurs in the /BaseFont field and in the /Fontname field.
The name is of the form XXXXXX+YYY where the XXXXXX part is the one that
varies and is called the subset_tag. It is generated in
texk/web2c/pdftexdir/utils.c function make_subset_tag() from an MD5 sum
over the font glyphs.

Description

eg.
/ID [<1ebdbec86dcab3e39cf225470b799ae8> <1ebdbec86dcab3e39cf225470b799ae8>]
.
Not caused by build path nor by the minute used to build at least.
Intermediate "--tempdir=docbuild" has no differences.
.
ID is varying because texlive generates it based on the build path, see also
pdf_id_varying_due_to_build_path issue.

(This might be tagged the same as random_order_of_pdf_ids_generated_by_latex)
