It's perhaps worth noting that ADE - by far the most common ePub renderer out there - doesn't support RTL languages at all, although the ePub standard does. Support for it is optional in ePub 2.

Are there ebooks available here in mobi format that use embedded fonts? I'd like to do some experiments...

The Mobi7 format does not support embedded fonts; for that you need KF8.
