- could possibly have a list of fonts which would be redirected
- would have to probably have a text box with a 'device font path', which would be up to user to make sure that it is correct.
The main reason I ask, is that I have a lot of epubs with several common fonts (Charis being main one) and would like to reduce the size footprint of the epubs, but not have to miss the correct fonts being used.
What do you think?

I kind of like this idea, but isn't it device dependent?
I believe my
device uses something like
Code:
src: url("res:///fonts/TestFonts.ttf")
This would make it a Per Device (driver level?) setting, with a prior-to-send scan for device available fonts: 0)Leave book as is.
1)Modify to use any Device fonts, removing those embedded fonts from the book. 2)Remove all Embedded fonts but use any device resident font, (assumes CSS has a fallback coded). 3)Removal all @fonts and embedded fonts
