    Anyone know if you can use docbook to embed fonts for epub output?
    (i.e,. in terms of identifying the font and its path -- the actual
    call will obviously be in the CSS).

    I use db2epub.py and that has been pretty good about copying and
    zipping stuff. But some of those copy/zip operations probably are done
    in the python script, not in the XSLT. I have no idea whether db2epub
    could actually do it.

    Just wondering. So far support for embedded fonts in devices have been
    bad, so this issue hasn't really popped up. But I suspect over the
    next year it will pop up a lot more.
