I use the windows Geogia-pro font & finally installed the semi-bold. For my eyesight & Mars/Moon settings, it looks much better than the bold font & good contrast without being looking a bit out-of-focus(?).

Don't know it the semi-bold applies to all fonts on e-ink but should be easy to try on the Mars. Cannot check it out on the Kobo as it only allows selecting a font family & Kobo does the bolding(?) of the font.
I've used Georgia and others, but lately have stuck with Deja Vu Serif E-Ink and make it a little bolder on the KOA2. Semi Bold might be a nice option for a font that has it. Thanks.
