Changing from original font

I'm aware there are some limitations when it comes to changing the font; performance may be poorer and bold/italics etc. may not always work. The manual also says something about content with embedded fonts may not change. From that, I take it they believe it'll work most of the time but no guarantees.

In my case though I very rarely succeed in actually changing the font at all. Of fifteen different books I tried yesterday, I was only able to change the font in three of them. For the other twelve, no matter which font I chose, the font just won't change from the original.

Is this something that is peculiar to me? Or do I not quite understand what "embedded fonts" mean, perhaps. All the fifteen files have a font-family (sometimes more than one) defined in the EPUB stylesheet but since three work and twelve don't, I suspect I'm looking at the wrong thing.

Guidance appreciated.
