Um.. I thought you of all people would know you cannot embed a font in Mobi.

But yes, I agree 100% that Adobe Garamond is too light. It's too light for eInk and it's even too light for an iPad. What should be embedded is Adobe Garamond Semi-Bold. That would work and not be too light. But publishers don't get that what's on the printed page doesn't always work on electronic devices and you do need to make adjustments.
