I think I've found a solution that more or less suits my needs, although I'm not sure if this a valid solution. I only need a Chinese font to read the occasional webpage or email; I don't need to type Chinese (so I don't need the full-blown Duokan, which in any case does not have internet access when in the Duokan system), and all the Chinese books I need to read are my own image-based pdf scans. I've replaced Serif_Regular.ttf with Arial Unicode MS.ttf, and Serif_Bold.ttf with LiHei Pro.ttf, both pulled from the fonts on my Mac. Now the browser can display Chinese in both regular and bold fonts (LiHei is quite a bold one, and italics in Chinese are relatively rare), without sacrificing the diacritics and italic fonts in my .azw and .mobi format ebooks. However, I'm not sure if there might be any licensing issues involved with these fonts.
