Vanity fonts

Hello. Admittedly, this is my first time using Sigil to create an epub, so if I'm doing it wrong, please let me know.

I've declared a specialty font for use in my epub (Belgrano). Long story short, if the font is not installed in my pc, even though Sigil css is declared and used properly, Belgrano is not displayed in the preview window in Sigil.

I had to install the font on my laptop to view it in the preview window of Sigil. Belgrano was already installed on my desktop and thus rendered properly there.

I doubt this is a big deal, because to my (very limited) knowledge, it really doesn't matter what font I prefer / declare, because at end-stage, whatever epub reader the user is using does it's own thing anyway, right?

Was this a big waste of time? Possibly. But let me know? And otherwise, 'Hello world!'
