Now, I really don't know if I lucked out or what, but for me the @import solution really does work all the time.

For testing purposes I've made a small validated epub containing a cover and 5 sentences each written in its own font. I've made 2 versions: one with a normally-linked stylesheet, another with the @import stylesheet. I uploaded both to KDP. KDP stripped fonts from the former, left the fonts in the latter. See screenshots below:

The source epubs were made in Sigil 0.9.3. If someone wants to check and de-bug them and the resulting mobis, download them in a zip file here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/j9rbrr31cp...0test.zip?dl=0
Hi:

I will take a look at this later tonight, thanks.
