I just tried the Kindle app on Android for comparison. It behaves exactly like that – although my test ebook did not go through the Enhanced Typesetting renderer.

My experience with Kindle Paperwhite is a bit different. There are two very different scenarios.

If the ebook file contains at least one embedded font, I get the "Publisher Font" option as a...

I don't. Do you have an idea how I could find out?

I already did tests of different fonts on different e-readers (in case I have to embed one). For books to sell it's always a legal issue, too. (One more reason to avoid embedding if possible.) Most...

Okay, this discussion seems to go in the wrong direction. I didn't want to start another "embed vs. not embed" discussion.
The fact that my Kindle Paperwhite seems to handle e-books with embedded...

Since embedding fonts (especially for running text) is highly controversial I came up with the idea of just using some of the built-in fonts of different e-readers.
I saw that my Kindle Paperwhite...
