The default fonts installed by the hack are the usual non-cjk unicode fonts (Droid Sans, Droid Serif & DejaVu Sans Mono), with the addition of the CJK-aware Droid Fallback if you're on FW 3.x. You'll find a bunch of other prepackaged, ready to use, font sets here, and in the next few replies.
You'll have to restart your Kindle in order to properly take your new fonts into account. |

Sans_Italic.ttf: May be used alongside Sans_Regular or Sans_Bold somewhere ^^
Sans_BoldItalic.ttf: Used in the book list, for the collection names
Serif_*.ttf: Used in the reader, that's the font family your books will be rendered with.
Serif_Bold.ttf: Used in the book & collection browser for the book title & author. (NOTE: For these purposes, Serif_Regular is used instead on FW 3.x)
Mono_*.ttf: AFAICT, nowehere except in the browser, but I may be mistaken. (Might be used in the reader when you're feeding it a raw txt file or some raw html files, depending on styling).
And since v3.8.N, on FW 3.x:
CJK.ttf: Used for Chinese/Japanese/Korean scripts.
I18N.ttf: Last fallback for non-latin & non-cjk scripts.

Which tells us:
1. Okay.
2. Sure.
3. Nope, wrong (hint: I imagine you'll want to use it as the Serif_* family).
4. Definitely wrong, *never* delete anything in there, always *overwrite* the parts of the 3 switchable font sets (Serif_*, Sans_*, Mono_*) you want to change.
5. Yep.
