Use the search feature for more information. In general the CSS file is holding format-information and is solely used by epub-format
It is still valid for all pre-T1 models.
Puting additional fonts (to be used with epub's) is simply creating a folder in the reader InternalMemory (IM). This is the removeable drive - named READER - shown in your File-Browser when connecting your PRS+650 to USB, and copying some *.ttf or *.otf fonts into.

Also, I am still puzzled by being able to read Traditional Chinese on the first ten pages of the e-books but not the rest. If it is a problem of the font, why would the Chinese characters display properly on the first ten pages?

As neither the stock-fonts, nor the enhanced fonts provided with the various CustomFirmWares (CFW) support chinese glyphs, only formats with embedded fonts will show up correct. (This should be true for PDF and EPUB, both with embedded fonts).
And because this font-files are rather huge, this may lead to memory-problems, as not showing pages higher then xy.
If you are familar with linux and shell-scripts you may try to use the "mount --bind" trick, to replace the build in system fonts.
After that you should be able to read UTF-8 encoded Text-files.
Another way would be to convert your texts to epub with calibre and
A) embed the font -> files will become bigger
B) copy the neede *.ttf file onto the reader and reference it in the CSS file.
See this post of kartu
here
please note: when you place your *.ttf file in a folder /fonts/<yourfile.ttf> in IM
then the CSS reference will be src: url(
res:///Data/fonts/<yourfile.ttf>;
