Someone could write a program, but it should be easy enough just using a text editor to edit the .kobo/Kobo/Kobo eReader.conf file, as long as on Windows you use one that understands unix line breaks such as Notepad++.

Example for sideloaded "Dark Courier" font:
Code:
[Reading]
readingFontSharpness\Dark%20Courier=0.05
readingFontWeight\Dark%20Courier=0.25
The sharpness set by the slider ranges from -0.4 to 0.2 (default -0.06), and weight from -0.2 to 0.8 (default 0.1).
