Quick question though: Does Kindle for iOS support viewing embedded fonts?

I don't seem to have any purchased KF8s with embedded fonts with which to test. I do have a book I modified and to which added embedded fonts. I sideloaded this book via iTunes but the option to use publisher fonts does not show up. I know Amazon does not give full feature sets to the Kindle apps and I know that sideloaded books don't always have as many allowable features as those purchased and DLed.

Just curious. It is no big deal if embedded fonts are not supported. Great screen on iPad for reading. I really love two-column view in landscape!
Download a sample of the latest Star Trek eBook Raise the Dawn. It has a KF8 version and does have fonts embedded. This is a good test if KF8 is supported or not.
