You have to use OpenType fonts, for example: Gentium.
1. If you haven't done so yet, check ePub Format Construction Guide
2.Add something like this to *.opf:
3. create "fonts" directory and copy your fonts there
4. And an entry like this into css/*.css file will make it a default font:
5. Create the epub file:
And you have a slightly larger epub file that does not depend on fonts installed on the device. |
Actually, when I embed the fonts into the ePub file itself, I don't have to change the OPF file at all. All I modify is the CSS and add the font directory at the same level as the CSS. It works fine. So no need to go messing with the .opf file at all to embed fonts. That just complicates matters.
