@Jhowell:

Well, the "shoulds" aside, what he's describing echoes our experience. Once a font--any font, even one used once for a fleuron--is embedded, the body font will always default to Sans-serif, unless overridden by other CSS establishing a specific body font or setting it to serif.

Amazon's well aware of this, or, at least, I've discussed it with them on no less than 3 occasions over the last 3-4 years.
