booktode:

I think you're running into what is called "CSS specificity". In other words, any fonts that are called from the pdf (or epub) file directly via its own css rules will take "priority" over what is called in a global rule.

It's a basic of CSS and one of the reasons for it's power in design and development.

I got to know css pretty well while building my blog, but am just now getting my head around how it applies to ereaders, their file formats, and use with programs like Calibre....
