I've tried many options

I have tried that already.

I have tried uploading .mobi created using Kindle previewer desktop app and they look good as well, but the same result.
The .epub validates.

I have been working on this for a few weeks. I have pulled apart a few other people's ebooks with successfully embedded fonts to see how they have done it.

I have tried many possible options. For four different publications. Epubs built with Sigil. Epubs built with Calibre. Mobis built by Calibre. Mobis converted with Kindle previewer. Even .mobis converted by an online conversion.

The thing is that the mobis look good in the KDP previewer when uploaded, ie, on KDP's own site.

I would be grateful if anyone could find the fault with my process from my original post.
