Embedded fonts allow for users to view the PDF the same way even if they do not have the fonts used in the document. For some users it may look slightly different but most users will have a font in the same "family" so it will not change too much.
You need embedded fonts for very unusual things (like my To&E symbol font).
Unfortunately PDFs can be created a dozen different ways so removing them would probably be dependent on the software you are using. I use acrobat pro extended and I saved an optimized version. I then chose Settings->Fonts and then unembeded the fonts.
I have attached my modified version which is about 275kB. You replace yours and remove this link if you want. (I think moderators can do that)
