I use a Nook Color. It does support embedded fonts. I loaded a beta EPUB3 book, Moby-Dick. It uses the STIX font. The font folder is 956KB. Most of the EPUBs I have created are about that size or less so adding a fonts folder increases the EPUB file size but it doesn't seem to be a problem for "modern" devices.
Other formatting in the book is properly displayed on the Nook, horizontal lines, right justified, etc.
When I view the book on Kindle for PC, the STIX font is displayed but some other formatting is missing. If you open the book in Adobe Digital Editions, you see the difference.
It's time for Amazon to use the industry standard EPUB format for Kindles.
Sorry I can't find the site where I found the EPUB so you can see for yourself.
