If your ePub contains otf or ttf fonts and the iPad does display them that's very interesting.

Has anyone else got direct experience with ePubs, embedded fonts and the iPad?

The only way to tell if you're using a font within its licence is to read the license and see what it says. If it is unclear, you'll need to ask the font foundry.
Sadhu is way off base here. iBooks does not support embedded fonts.

Overdrive are working on an app for the iPad which will handle Adept DRM. I'm hoping it will be a full fledged ADE with the ability to put our own eBook on the iPad to use with this.
