The answer can only be, use only the standard fonts the app comes with. The jury should be informed of this fact, and may judge the general look of the fonts, but not the closeness to the set pieces. I do think that the number and the quality of fonts that come as part of a certain notation software is a criteria. Every participant should probably give a list of fonts used.
