I haven't tried it yet myself, but what I've heard from others is that if you submit an epubcheck compliant epub with embedded fonts, it will be rejected as having failed epubcheck-1.0.5 even though that error message is incorrect.

From the Apple "iTunesConnect Publisher User Guide:

Fonts
- Do not use explicit fonts, as it creates a bad user experience. Explicit font families should be used sparingly, for example, when trying to achieve an effect such as a handwritten note or for a section that must be in a monospaced font.
- Do not use embedded (downloaded) fonts, as they are currently not supported.
- To ensure that the person reading can make the font bigger or smaller, do not use fixed font sizes; use relative sizes instead.
