All the adjustments to text layout (font style, size, weight, line spacing, left/right margins, justification) work for sideloaded epubs in general, but in some cases the way the .css stylesheet has been coded prevents the adjustments from working. These problem books can be fixed by manually tweaking the stylesheet before sideloading the book, or if you are converting books to epub from another format using Calibre then you can set the layout options in Calibre so that all the tweaking is done automatically. I think the only difference for Kobo kepub format books is that Kobo have already tweaked the ones that need it.
