We are using the fonts that are already installed on the blackberry and not providing our own. So there is zero impact in program size.

The only difference is in names - HTML standard uses a different naming methodology than the blackberry programs.

The mapping between standard HTML fonts and Blackberry fonts is decided by RIM, and may vary from device to device. We are investigating if it is possible to use native fonts directly in our program. If it is, we would certainly start using the native font names.

Cheers.
