Sadly, I find myself editing quite a few books. The latest was due to the creator's love for fonts. Here's what I found in the first of the 3 stylesheets.

font-family : serif;
font-family : sans-serif;
font-family : monospace;
font-family : "Goudy Old Style MT Std", serif;
font-family : "DIN Next LT Pro", sans-serif;
font-family : "DIN Next LT Pro Medium", sans-serif;
font-family : Rubens, serif;
font-family : "Charis SIL", serif;
font-family : "Times New Roman", serif;
font-family : "Verdana", sans-serif
font-family : "Trebuchet MS", serif;
font-family : 'Open Sans', sans-serif;

I'm not sure what they were intending their ebooks to be read on but for me since few of those fonts are available on my ereaders, I got the system serif and san-serif fonts which was probably better than the ransom note appearance the book had when I opened it on a Win10 computer. At least the ghodawful Fraktur style font that was used for the chapter headers was supplied as images that were rather tiny on my KA1.
