After digging around this thread some more, it sounded like I needed to use Sigil to manually edit the style section of each ePub that failed to use the new font. I replaced every "font-family" reference I could find, which made my books display Fontin in both Sigil and Calibre's internal viewer (I've installed the font on my PC), so I thought I did things properly.

But when I put these ePubs on my Reader, they still don't use Fontin. I've tried entering different permutations of Fontin for "font family:"

"Fontin"
Fontin
"Fontin", serif

But none of them work. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

This is what I put in every ePub I convert using Calibre at the beginning of the CSS.

@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin";
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin-Regular.ttf);
}
@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin";
  font-weight: bold;
  font-style: normal;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin-Bold.ttf);
}
@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin";
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: italic;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin-Italic.ttf);
}
@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin_Sans";
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin_Sans_R_45b.otf);
}
@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin_Sans";
  font-weight: bold;
  font-style: normal;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin_Sans_B_45b.otf);
}
@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin_Sans";
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: italic;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin_Sans_I_45b.otf);
}
@font-face {
  font-family: "Fontin_Sans" ;
  font-weight: bold ;
  font-style: italic ;
  src: url(res:///Data/fonts/Fontin_Sans_BI_45b.otf) ;
}
body {
  font-family: "Fontin", serif;
  widows: 0;
  orphans: 0
}

Not every case will it work as is to display the font. Sometimes you need to look at the html code to see what styles are used and ad the specific font family you want to the style(s) used.
