It will reduce the size even if all of the four of the fonts are used. What Calibre does is remove from the used font(s) all the characters not in use. And any font not in use will be fully removed. So if your eBook doesn't use bold italic (for example), that font will be fully removed. But what's used will be reduced in size as not every character will be used in all the fonts.
