As far as I know, the reason why the PRST3 doesn't have a problem with its default, i.e. 'Original', font is because Sony finally ditched the useless Dutch801 Rm BT (tt0011_.ttf) and made Amasis the default font. Whether this change started with the T2 or T3, I'm not sure. Dutch 801 was the default from the days of the PRS505 in 2009 (maybe before that) and was still in use on the PRST1.
I believe Dutch 801 only supported Western European chars - 377 glyphs - which is pretty low for an international device. Not only that but this basic font was used to 'fake' italics/bold rather than using proper italic/bold font files. Why Sony stuck with it for so long is anyone's guess, but it's why these MR Forums have always been full of ways to customise fonts on a Sony.
