Thanks for all your answers. I found out that, sometimes, fonts that prohibit embedding, do allow using the font for cover images which is then covered by the desktop license. It's dangerous to generalize, though.

I know that text as images should be used only as the last resort. I would only do it for aesthetic effect on chapter starting pages (a decorative glyph > SVG), for scene dividers, for the raised cap for the first paragraph in the chapter, or for the words "The end" on the last page.
