Sending mobi file via USB is not irrelevant, because you have to make sure that KindleGen does not strip the fonts, and the only way to do this is to transfer your test file via USB.

Also since PDS and KDP use different toolchains, it's quite possible that your particular font stripping problem only occurs with documents delivered via PDS. I.e., it might be a non-issue.
