It doesn't matter on the font. The K4 will show any font that is embedded in the KF8. (Rendering quality will vary.) It's just like a epub, the font is included in the file.

The K4 has 3 fonts. Two versions of Caecilia, One Sans Serif and a hidden Mono font. Any other font you see in a book is embedded in the file of the book you are reading. I find this annoying and remove them with Calibre.

I use Amasis that has been modified for eInk as my reading font.

The KT now might be different. The Kindle Previewer has a list of fonts when you go in preview mode for the KT.
