How can one embed a font into a PDF with free linux command line tools? [closed]

Question

I have a set o f PDFs that display fine on my machine. However, they use non-standard fonts installed on my machine. As they are not embedded (as per pdffonts), they don't display on other machines. How can I embed this font using only linux command line tools.

BTW, under Windows, Adobe Acrobat could be used as explained here.
