Since you have a 650, create a fonts directory in the root of the 650.

Now go to http://www.mediafire.com/download/om...L_-_Hinted.rar and download the RAR file containing Charis SIL (modified by me and includes smallcaps). Either version will display the same with ADE and on the 650.

Add the following code to the ePub's CSS...

Code:
@font-face {
font-family: "serif";
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
src: url(res:///Data/fonts/CharisSILR.ttf)
}
@font-face {
font-family: "serif";
font-weight: bold;
font-style: normal;
src: url(res:///Data/fonts/CharisSILB.ttf)
}
@font-face {
font-family: "serif";
font-weight: normal;
font-style: italic;
src: url(res:///Data/fonts/CharisSILI.ttf)
}
@font-face {
font-family: "serif";
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic;
src: url(res:///Data/fonts/CharisSILBI.ttf)
}
body {
font-family: "serif";
widows: 0;
orphans: 0;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
text-align: justify
}
If ther eis already a body style, you can just delete the original one for this one. After you put this in the CSS, it will display all the characters in the ePub correctly. Also, (IMHO) I do think you will like the way it looks better then using the default font.
