Actually, ADE is very forgiving. So if you have an ePub that has @font code pointing to the font files sitting on a Sony Reader, ADE (on a different reader) will still work. It's just that you'll get whatever the default font is. I'm not sure (depending how the code is setup) if other readers that allow font changing will work to change the font. I know if you use a
font-family: serif then it will work on other readers to change fonts. But if you use say
font-family: Charis, then even if the @font points to non-existent fonts I can't say if changing the fonts via the reader will work.
