I prefer reading with a serif font myself, but if you prefer a sans-serif font, then Trebuchet MS is quite nice and has all 4 files (regular, italic, bold, bolditalic). If you're a Windows user they should be available in your Windows\Fonts directory. You just need to copy all 4 to sdcard/fonts on your Galaxy Tab for CoolReader to 'see' them plus configure CR to use them via Options - Font face.

You may need to edit the filenames to the usual accepted standard e.g.
TrebuchetMS.ttf
TrebuchetMS-Italic.ttf
TrebuchetMS-Bold.ttf
TrebuchetMS-BoldItalic.ttf
