Yes. As I said: it's been unreliable since at least late 2012, and we've been in communication with them on that ever since.

I was shocked by this restriction. Kindle Publishing Guidelines does not enforce such requirements:
What the Publishing Guidelines say, and what actually works, like almost everything else in the world of the Net and Tech, aren't the same thing. We've found that it's best to stick to a set of fonts that we know work. We stack up a list of about 50, update them every so often, and that's what we'll work with. Other firms have a fixed-list of fonts, too, and yet others charge the earth to use user-provided fonts (always asking for trouble, IMHO, due to the issues discussed herein, plus issues that users don't think about, like the font baseline-size).
