They didn't say the epub in question used embedded or what form the CSS was in.
I did note 1 solution was changing the font name ending and another was converting TrueType to open type font.
It's not a truetype vs opentype. It's that Kobo chose to ignore a font-family command in the CSS when it is placed in the body style. This is a big screw up as most eBooks turn on the main body font by placing font-family in body. Most publishers do it this way.
