People who have used opera for some time know the usefullness of the "identify as" option. In the new versions it hard to find where its located , so here's how
right click on the webpage ->edit site preferences -> network
so basically it lets you set the preferences per website , which seems to be a useful feature , except for the fact that its hard to find.

Latex solution : IEEE etc requiring all fonts to be embedded
Here's an ugly solution which worked for me
( this is from here just copying it here again in case the original post get lost in an internet purge )
modify file
/usr/share/gs-afpl/8.14/lib/gs_pdfwr.ps
and change lines
/.standardfonts [
/Courier /Courier-Bold /Courier-Oblique /Courier-BoldOblique
/Helvetica /Helvetica-Bold /Helvetica-Oblique /Helvetica-BoldOblique
/Times-Roman /Times-Bold /Times-Italic /Times-BoldItalic
/Symbol /ZapfDingbats
] readonly def
into
/.standardfonts [
% /Courier /Courier-Bold /Courier-Oblique /Courier-BoldOblique
% /Helvetica /Helvetica-Bold /Helvetica-Oblique /Helvetica-BoldOblique
% /Times-Roman /Times-Bold /Times-Italic /Times-BoldItalic
% /Symbol /ZapfDingbats
] readonly def
=========
the command pdffonts shows the different fonts and whether they are embedded
sample output
pdffonts apdffile.pdf
name type emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
Arial-BoldMT TrueType no no no 2295 0
