This is because the answer to "Custom Fonts?" is often complicated.

On the PocketBooks, FBReader can use any font you add to the device. FBReader can read DRM-free ePubs (not all ePub features are supported), but the default viewer for ePub is Adobe Digital Editions which must be used for DRM-ridden ebooks. PocketBook does not allow you to change fonts in an ePub when using ADE, but you can replace it with a version that does, see Hacked AdobeViewer.app with userstyle1.css. Alternatively, you can use Calibre's ePub to ePub conversion to explicitly reference fonts on your 360 in each DRM-free ePub, see user accessable userStyle.css please (this is requesting what get provided in the other thread, but also includes instructions for the per-ebook approach).

The Sony PRS-350 only supports PDF and ePub and does so via ADE. Like the PocketBooks, it is easy to add on-device fonts to individual DRM-free ePubs via Calibre (ePub custom Fonts on all Sonys) but, unlike earlier Sony's, you again have to hack the device to get userStyle.css support (Is it possible to replace Sony font? [350 & 650]).

You would need to search the forum for other devices. My memory is that at least some Bookeen devices have explicit support for changing fonts in ePubs.
