No. He's talking about, particularly, the Nook HD Color, which routinely and very annoyingly ignores perfectly solid CSS and embedded fonts, and simply does NOT display them, publisher-fonts or no publisher fonts. There was a very lengthy thread, when was it, Jellby, Tox, do you remember?--last year, sometime, and I thought the OP was crazy, too, until we had the same thing happen. A file with an embedded font could NOT display the font on the client's Nook HD Color. Subsequent experiments seem to indicate an override of some type. And, yes, we directly side-loaded the file to the devices, with no joy. And the fonts worked perfectly on a Nook Color, Nook readers and other Nook devices.

And it didn't matter how we embedded the fonts; by individual style; by class, by body. One of the fonts just would NOT display.

FWIW.
