FBReader's initial philosophy was that the reader should select the font they liked best and use it for all ebooks, so the font selection is a global selection. On the other hand, some CSS is now honored for ePubs in FBReader. I don't think this includes fonts (it certainly does not include embedded fonts), but it could in the future. One problem, though, is that the Font Family (etcetera) would have to be exactly right in the ePub for FBReader to pick up the font from those installed on the device.
