Why isn't relying on default fonts provided by the user's system good enough for that?
I don't know what specific problem the parent is pointing to, but generally, users don't set up defaults, so you're really using the defaults of the vendor of whatever system the user uses. That may or may not be useful.
Tool customization may be where the users and power users are separated - but it's hard to tell who is who when you're just looking at an HTTP request.
