Adding the fonts to the OPF was the hardest part. Editing toc.ncx to remove the entries no longer needed wasn't hard. All in all, if I didn't want to bother to make the code look nice, I could have done it in 1/2 the time. And when putting in the coding needed to activate the fonts in the XML, it was a matter of seeing if I also needed to delete the bold and/or italics.
Now that I've done it, I should be able to do it even faster for the next book. Well, faster relative to the difference in size. And the thing is, now that it is done, I'll have it that way always.

What would be interesting is if you could create either a Python or perl script to automate the editting
