  • DejaVuSerifEInk (by Katsunami)
  • LexiaDaMa
  • Amasis

I just wanted to see what various fonts would look like on my PW2.

I deleted the ePub and mobi attachments because I'm not sure about the distribution of all of these fonts. I attached a screen capture from PW2 in their place.
None of those fonts look nearly as good on a KPW as my Charis SIL Modified. Give it a try and I think you'll agree.
