Back to the original post issue:

Here is what Apple says in its FAQs about fonts:
Fonts:

To properly allow the user to change the body font of content, an explicit font-family CSS property must be used sparingly. Explicit font families should only be used to achieve an intended effect, such as conveying that a note is handwritten.
Do not include embedded (downloaded) fonts.
Do not use fixed font sizes.

I don't know if this link will get you to the actual page or just the sign-in page of iTunes Connect.

I am a writer first, a computer user next, an ebook developer a distant third, and a computer programmer not at all. I struggle to transform my print books for the electronic world. I find doing so an interesting challenge, but the 200 hours I've spent in the challenge has taken 200 hours away from writing. I am no JK Rawlings or Stephen King. No publisher is knocking down my door to do all the work fore me. Calibre has been useful to me, so has Sigil, and TextWrangler. I make only one request to the Gods of the HTML / CSS / ePub dominion, please add this tag to make everything work: <anythinggoes> </anythinggoes>.
