That's right. In Kobo for Android you only can select 'Droid Sans Serif', 'Droid Serif' or 'Publisher Default'. But as you had told me that by adding
Code:
body {font-family: serif}
ruined your kobo collections, I wanted to tell you that you still could use that property without danger.

On the eink Kobos, my experience has been that if you code css as body {font-family: serif} then the Kobo is able to override with the user-selectable font-of-choice stored on the device. However, if instead the font-family is in a css class (e.g. .calibren {font-family: serif; ...} after a calibre conversion) then the eink Kobo can't override and uses its default serif font (Georgia) instead of the user-selected one.

Yes again. Regrettably Calibre has that drawback. I use it very little, I prefer to work with Sigil since allows me a cleaner css stylesheet. In the last case you indicated, you could open the epub in Sigil and by mean of S&R to erase in classes {font-family: serif; ...} and to add it in the body selector. Of that way you could have serif font in Kobo and also in Moon+ with "Preview with publisher formatting" enabled

But all that with the only end of reading an ebook in Moon+

A lot of work

Better let's use PocketBook or Mantano
