I've followed the embedment method pretty closely and still am having no luck in getting the embedded fonts to stick despite using various different single fonts for my chapter headings in a number of different ebooks.

I've downloaded a few mobi files previously uploaded to KDP from the previewer and the font is there, just not when it gets to the public side.

In some ways this is good news, ie, it might not be my markup, but hopefully KDP will resolve things shortly.
Coop:

You're saying that you're seeing fonts in the online Previewer, but NOT seeing them in the downloadable samples or books, from the books on sale?

You're the second person that's said this, and I'm downloading samples from our books, and the fonts ARE there. hmmm.
