And as for the second side of the problem: What would then happen if I specifically downloaded a font and added it to my own device, and then share the file in question with someone else? Would they end up with the same error, or is it somehow possible to "attach" a font with the file?

Sorry if my questions are on a very elementary level.
The proper way to avoid the issue is to EMBED the font into the book.
Depending on the font face, get out your wallet if you want to distribute the book. Font license can get expensive. Most fonts are copyrighted. and it geta worse. The license might needed for up to 4 of them (normal, bold, italic bold-italic)
