What did you use for those 4? Did you just use 2 fonts and have the regular and italic the same as bold / bold italic?
I like really bold text on E Ink screens as my eyes are not as good as they once were. So I used bold and bold-italic only when I created my files for the font folder.
  • CaeciliaHeavy-Regular.ttf, used PMN Caecelia 85
  • CaeciliaHeavy-Italic.ttf, used PMN Caecelia 86
  • CaeciliaHeavy-Bold.ttf, used PMN Caecelia 85
  • CaeciliaHeavy-BoldItalic.ttf, used PMN Caecelia 86

The caveat is you lose the ability to differentiate normal from bold text, but in the books I read that really isn't much of an issue. About the only text that is bolded are headings and those still stand out.
