You can make any font fit into any body text type. Here is an example:
@font-face {
font-family:"MinionPro";
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
src:url(res:///Data/fonts/MinionPro-MediumDisp.otf);
}
@font-face {
font-family:"MinionPro";
font-weight: bold;
font-style: normal;
src:url(res:///Data/fonts/MinionPro-SemiboldDisp.otf);
}
@font-face {
font-family:"MinionPro";
font-weight: normal;
font-style: italic;
src:url(res:///Data/fonts/MinionPro-MediumItDisp.otf);
}
@font-face {
font-family:"MinionPro";
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic;
src:url(res:///Data/fonts/MinionPro-SemiboldIt.otf);
}

Minionpro medium display is used as my body text and other versions of it are used for bold, italic... and more.

ePub+calibre makes font changing fun and easy, I probably have tried over 100 font combination s now. I use Grandesign Neue Serif now for most of my books.

Cheers!!
