Note that this approach is entirely compatible with well-behaved readers that change only the body tag's font, because a reader stylesheet that overrides the font on the body tag (and only the body tag) won't cause that hidden text to appear. However, if you really need to force the body text to a particular font, declare a paragraph style with a font choice and !important. Then, odds are good that any reader that overrides the paragraph font will also get tripped up by the canary above, and any reader that doesn't won't be.

I just tried this using Bluefire Reader and it didn't work. I overrode the default embedded font and I did not see BlankFont show up in red at all.
