Latvian epubs usually are sold with an embedded font but only because there are many e-readers that do not support Latvian characters by default. The font is ugly and the book looks much better when converted to mobi and displayed on Kindle with its default font.
It would be nice to have a possibility to use additional fonts for highlighting in few cases but Comic Sans should be expressly forbidden in all e-readers

You totally missed the point. The point is that the HP books have multiple fonts for things like different character handwriting and the base font is different then any reader's base font. That is what I am trying to say. Now ePub can have these fonts embedded and they would display quite well on an eink reader. But Mobipocket cannot do this and it fails at giving the reader the better reading experience. All you get is plain text in one of three styles.. sans-serif, serif, and monospace. This in now way works when what's called for it the different fonts.
