I know I could get away without embedding a font... I'm just being fussy about typesetting, I guess. I wonder what percentage of readers override the publisher font anyway.

MANY. I can't tell you how many people I've met who don't even know that their Kindle PPW, Voyage, Oasis, etc. just defaults to some other font and Publisher Font has to be actively chosen by the reader. It won't open, by default, in PF, even if you've broken Amazon's rules and told the "body" element to be David Libre or what-have-you.

Wondering if it's worth trying to distribute KFX files or just stick with my current solution (of a Kindle-specific version that hides the niqqud).

Excellent question. Does the extant, Kindle-provided Hebrew font work worth a damn for you, when you don't embed one?
