`pdfNoEmbedFontListAdd`

Nominally: blacklist a font name from being embedded.

Category	Font policy (dead subsystem)
Exported names	`pdfNoEmbedFontListAddA`, `pdfNoEmbedFontListAddW`, `pdfNoEmbedFontListAdd`
Note	The list is stored but never consulted by embedding logic — see the chapter note

Purpose — Nominally: blacklist a font name from being embedded.

Description — Genuinely appends FontName to a case-insensitive TStringList (NoEmbedFonts), returning its 1-based position. The list itself behaves correctly for every list-management call in this family — the defect is that nothing reads this list when deciding whether to embed a font.
