Jaden, you have to be sure that when you add fonts to the Kobo, you have a full set of four variations and they have to be formatted in a particular way. Like this for Gentium Book Basic:

GenBkBasB.tff (bold)
GenBkBasBI.tff (bold italics)
GenBkBasI.tff (italics)
GenBkBasR.tff (Rpman (not regular)/normal)

Some places where we get free fonts don't have all four, or they are named in a different way. you can rename them, as long as all four are there and they follow the naming convention.
