Hi,
this statement is not correct, at least not for TrueType fonts.
Section 5.5.2 of PDF 1.7 reference says:
| If the font in a source document uses a bold or italic style but
| there is no font data for that style, the host operating system
| synthesizes the style. In this case, a comma and the style name
| (one of Bold , Italic , or BoldItalic ) are appended to the font
| name. For example, for a TrueType font that is a bold variant of
| the New York font, the BaseFont value is written as
| /NewYork,Bold (as illustrated in Example 5.8).
I cannot speak of the other aspects of your proposal, that requires
more specification reading, testing and so on, which requires quite
some time.
Bye,
