CharSet is a byte string formatted as a PostScript array of
glyph names, such as (/A /B /C). It lists all the glyphs present in
a Type 1 font subset.
Viewers can use CharSet to determine which character codes a
subset font can render without decompressing and parsing the font
program. It is not used for TrueType or CFF fonts.
