Dunno. He said, above, that he doesn't embed fonts, and said further that...lemme see...

I use styles and character styles for the italics so the css works when exporting as an epub or mobi using the plugin.
So...my idea doesn't sound right. Styles and character styles in INDD creates spans, and usually calls the font for the inline style, so, if he's not using an embedded font (or calling a font that doesn't exist), then I'm not quite sure. And damned if I know what Maverick would do to have changed it. Or iOS7...whatever. I don't know why the OS would change the export via the plugin to Kindle. Actually, this kinda makes my brain hurt.
