Kovid:

Thanks. I wasn't looking to turn this into a philosophical discussion, about licensing fonts rather than not--I really just wanted to know if it did (look for the embedding bits). Obviously, it's something that we're very attuned to, at my shop. I was wondering if C did look for that, because we do get a fair number of "fixer-uppers." If C looked at that, I could have used it as a quick-n-dirty double-check of ePUBs that we've not made ourselves.

As it is, we unzip the ePUB and I check the bits with my font manager. I was simply hoping that you might have something faster/easier.

Thanks.
