Here is the explanation from the pdfTeX manual. If the font file name is preceded by a double <<, the font file will be included entirely =97 all glyphs of the font are embedded, including even the ones that are not used in the document. Apart from causing large size pdf output, this option may cause troubles with TrueType fonts, so it is normally not recommended for Type1 or TrueType fonts. But this is currently the only mode that allows the use of OpenType fonts. This mode might also be useful in case the font is atypical and can not be subsetted well by pdfTX. Beware: some font vendors forbid full font inclusion.
