No, there is NO possibitlity to manage it with callibre. That's because this format do not support different fonts and CSS like EPUB.

Explained the other way:
LRF displays the one and only font on the reader which SONY forces you to use. You cannot change this font easily, you cannot see this font when connecting the reader to the PC.

For changing fonts in LRF (same for TXT, RTF) you would have to 'hack' your reader to force it using another font.
This is possible, but not simple. I've had your problem too and managed it by writing my own 'hack'.

If you want to try it, you would have to install the firmware-addon 'PRS+' and then the firmware-addon 'ZORK-Edition' which is an altered PRS+ version. Sadly the LRF-font-function is not 100% bug-free.

If you really want to try it, I would recommend to install PRS+ first and get used to PRS+. If you don't like it, you coud revert it with a deinstaller available. If you like it, you could install ZORK (from my website, link in my signature). If you do not like it, you can use the same deinstaller.

At least PRS+ I very very recommend
