I agree about some fonts being darker than others. One of the reasons I format my ebooks as PDFs is so that I can control the fonts that display on my reader (I'm not comfortable tinkering with the default fonts on my reader).

Due to darkness issues I started using Georgia as my serif font. It renders much darker than Thorndale (the font I used to use as my serif font, its similar to Times New Roman). Best thing to do is try many different fonts to see how they display on your reader.

To provide an example:

This text is in the Times New Roman typeface.

This text is in the Georgia typeface.
