Well, I found a bypass solution which worked but is pretty messy, I wouldn’t recommend that to anyone... I edited the font using FontForge and replaced the normal letters with their alternate glyphs

I really wish I could figure out how to make the font-variant-alternates work though.

In the print version, alternate glyphs are used, which I am unable to reproduce in the ePub. Alternate glyph means both letters are attributed to the same unicode. So in the print version, instead of using the regular « Q » and « v », it is the alternate ones that are used. Only some rare fonts have alternate glyphs (like the famous Zapfino) and this function is really not widely used, except for ligatures I believe.
