Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ttf-indic-fonts

There are many fonts 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 ttf files of this package ?

Here is a comparaison with the gzipped version:
-----
j...@j-laptop:~$ du -h 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-indic-fonts-core/Rachana_04.ttf 
380K    /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-indic-fonts-core/Rachana_04.ttf
j...@j-laptop:~$ gzip --best -c 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-indic-fonts-core/Rachana_04.ttf > 
Rachana_04.ttf.gz
j...@j-laptop:~$ du -h Rachana_04.ttf.gz 
160K    Rachana_04.ttf.gz
j...@j-laptop:~$
