LOL. "Do not use the Charis font."

It's used in almost all books that have embedded fonts straight from the publisher. Don't ask me why that is, but I've seen Charis more than any other font in ebooks I've bought.

I'd love to see those two options work together: completely remove any font that may be in the file, and THEN embed the one selected by the user. Now it seems to work the other way around: Calibre removing the font it just embedded itself. Maybe it'd be a good feature request.
