The web site does not specify a particular Japanese font. Japanese fields are marked with "ja" (language) and "sans-serif" (font-family), so each user can choose his or her preferred font with the browser options.
SmartKanji.net benefits from several distinct dictionaries. When you have annoted a text with one language or dictionary, you just have to click on a "Same text" entry to annotate the same text with another dictionary. The result is displayed in a new window or a new tab, so both annotations are available simultaneously.
Tip: with Internet Explorer, use Ctrl+click to open a new tab (press the "Control" key while you click).
