Ok, maybe that can help user_none...

Using the package by Iwazaru (Qt 5.2 beta), there is a very huge bug with embedded fonts (Latest MacBook Air, Mavericks): text "using" embedded fonts won't actually display in book view and it can't be selected either.

I fear it is a Qt bug as it's been always problematic with embedded fonts (an older version of Sigil kept crashing for some users when they modified styles in the CSS and fonts were embedded in the file).

Same problem with 5.1.1.

The only workaround I found is to install fonts in Mac OS X, use font-family to display them and embed fonts using @font-face at the end.
