As already reported, when we export our ePub3 as a plain .mobi file using Kindle Previewer 3, the resulting file can be copied directly into the documents folder of a Kindle Reader, which loads and displays all our custom fonts beautifully.

It is true that the users can always choose to display the text with one of the default fonts instead, but after sideloading an ePub3 to a Kindle Reader there is no difference when switching from "Publisher font" to "Amazon Ember". This is clearly a problem with how the file was changed during the transfer or how the Kindle Reader recognizes the ePub3.

Hope to find a solution to this conundrum.
