When I follow the instructions and try to change the font in the FBReader Configuration (by clicking on the OK button, and then "Settings"), the font does NOT change. If I reboot the device, this makes no difference.

Am I doing something wrong? Or (as I suspect) is this a bug in the FBReader Configuration under fw 2.0.6?
if J.C.'s suggestions do not work, try also opening a different book - I had the same problem with one file, but then could customise with another one. I think the fonts might have been embedded in the "unchangeable" file, but I am no geek and it might be something else. Anyhow, worth a try if you are stuck.
