Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ttf-unfonts

There are many font installed by default but only a few are actually
used.

The xfonts-base package compresses all the pcf files by using the gzip
method.

Why not compressing the ttc file of this package ?

Here is a comparaison with the gzipped version:
-----
j...@j-laptop:~$ du -h /usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/*.ttf
3,9M    /usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnBatangBold.ttf
3,6M    /usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnBatang.ttf
2,7M    /usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnDotumBold.ttf
2,2M    /usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnDotum.ttf
j...@j-laptop:~$ gzip --best -c 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnBatangBold.ttf > UnBatangBold.ttf.gz
j...@j-laptop:~$ du -h UnBatangBold.ttf.gz 
2,4M    UnBatangBold.ttf.gz
j...@j-laptop:~$
