Embed Liberation Sans in invoice PDFs for PDF/A-3 compliance (v0.2.6)
Validate e-invoices / mustang (push) Successful in 41s

An E-Rechnung checker flagged that generated invoices don't embed their
fonts. Both invoicePdf.tsx and correctionInvoicePdf.tsx used react-pdf's
built-in Helvetica/Helvetica-Bold, which is never embedded — PDF/A-3
(already required by this package's own Factur-X/ZUGFeRD pipeline) has
no exemption for standard fonts. Vendors Liberation Sans (SIL OFL-1.1,
metrically identical to Helvetica) and registers it via Font.register in
a new fonts.ts, imported by both PDF modules.

import { Font } from "@react-pdf/renderer";
// Registered once here (not inline in invoicePdf.tsx/correctionInvoicePdf.tsx)
// and imported by both for its side effect — avoids double-registering the
// same family when renderEInvoice.ts imports both PDF modules in the same

// Liberation Sans, not built-in Helvetica: PDF/A-3 (required by the
// Factur-X/ZUGFeRD pipeline in src/einvoice/) has no exemption for the
// standard/base-14 fonts react-pdf ships — every font actually used must be
// embedded, and react-pdf only embeds fonts it has real font-file bytes for
// via Font.register. Liberation Sans is metrically identical to Helvetica/
// Arial (SIL Open Font License, see src/assets/fonts/LICENSE-OFL.txt), so
// embedding it doesn't shift any existing layout.
