Thank you as well. I found that un-obfuscating/subsetting/encrypting the fonts by replacing the fonts within the .epub and deleting the encryption.xml file led to the fonts working on the ipad. Of course the font foundries, probably wouldn't be happy to hear that.

Adding the xml file that you mentioned also worked! Thank you!
Of course, when running thru FlightDeck, Kobo and Amazon didn't like the file.
I find this rather odd. I'm currently developing an eBook that is exported from InDesign CC, with the standard font obfuscation and subsetting. It views just fine on the iPad, including my embedded fonts. No need for font de-obfuscation (although I do need to do that with Kindlegen, as Doitsu mentioned). It's odd to me that you'd be having a problem on iPad.

Also, AFAIK, the CC export creates the ibooks.display-options.xml automatically...
