You've said in the past that you've never used an Android reader app so I'm not sure why you're worried about it.

However, in answer to your question - they vary. The ones based on the Adobe or Webkit rendering engines are good enough for me. The ones based on the CoolReader engine not so much. The latter are the ones which seem to prioritise user CSS overrides over book's own CSS.

It's a bit like the variety in eink devices, though. It can depend on how the HTML tags controlling the embedded font have been set up. Applying the embedded font to a <span> may have a better chance of surviving than applying to a <p> or <div> if a user has also enabled a 'Customise font' option for the main body text.
