Thanks all for the helpful suggestions. I think the font obfuscation sounds best to me - I have a post, about 2011-12, in the Font Creator forum about my problem with reducing a font (with Font Creator) to eliminate the extra glyphs and make the font smaller - ran into an odd problem in that the reduced font didn't work well at all. On some epub readers, there were odd omissions of a few glyphs so that a phrase would would have one or more blank spaces where specific glyphs didn't show even though they were certainly there when viewed with sigil. The forum moderator concluded the font reduction had caused this effect.
