So if the publisher uses font-family: "Charis", serif will Georgia be used instead of "Charis"?
Charis should work fine as long as you've included the necessary @font-faces. However, I admit to not having double-checked since the update to 2.6.1. It certainly used to work fine on previous firmwares. Georgia is used if the epub css specifies the generic font-family:serif.

Although as I've also said before, I've no idea why you'd want to put any effort into embedding Charis when it's easier to select it from the Kobo menu.
