Yes, either technique will work. So far as I know, there are not yet any good tools for embedding fonts in an ePub, but for the fonts on the device approach see ePub custom Fonts on 700 and 505. I am not aware of any significant differences for mobile ADE between the 300/600 vs the 505/700, so all the 505/700 stuff should work the same. Note that this still involves changing the ePub to explicitly reference the font.

As others have noted, you can also embed fonts in PDFs.
