If that epub has the font tagged that way it would prevent it from being changed later.

I often change the Font in books with embedded styles.

You could try using the "clear all external styles" then the epub.css. Or if you really want to keep the current css, you could edit it to remove the "!important" tag and save the resulting .css file, with a new name, in the folder the other ones are kept in. (I don't remember where exactly, off hand.)

Thanks Ken,

I did as you described and it works! Thank you!
In meantime I found "clearing" embedded font in calibre during covering also does the trick: even with book style "on" in koreader I can change fonts for such books.
Maybe converting books in calbre as described above makes the same what you wrote.

Anyway it works! Thank you!
Y.
