Each ebook's master must be hand made like I do in BD. You have to use certain font for some things and different font for other things and capital letters in the center and capital letters on the left hand side, and italics, and verses, and epigraphs, etc. Just like in a standard pbook. I believe that is what makes ebooks different.
You can do all that with ePub in the CSS. Plus you have more control over the actual fonts being used. You can just add the fonts you want to the ePub file, edit the CSS to use them and go from there.
