In situations like this, I should probably ask myself, "What would Hitch do?" The answer floats back on the echoes, "Hitch wouldn't let herself get involved with such a diabolical choice..."

First, GrannyGrump, I want you to know that you gave me a fit of giggles, on an otherwise dreary, dreary day. Mr. Hitch promptly espoused (when I read this to him, natch) that "there will be no living with her now."
Anyway: strewth, I wish I could say that I'd stay out of that type of situation. We've done at least 4-5 books just like that, with large swaths of text in a smallcap-based font. Just so you don't have any illusions of my genius.
Now, in the great minds category, I have to admit, I've made good use of the Alegreya font. I think it looks fine on eInk. Wolfie, mon sweet, what eInks are you talking about? Amazon, or...?
I'm away from the office computer (my brains) at the moment. I'll look in the morning, for some of the fonts we favor for this type of work. We have a huge collection of fonts. Virtually all are OS.
