It has the option it's in the "Tuning" settings menu (which is only visible if you changed your "Setting Complexity" to "Professional")

Configurable in the "Controls" settings category.

Alreader does not read pdf at all, so this is probably a problem of the pdf reader that you use. If you refer to epub, then it really does ignore the effects, but you can configure lots of different nice effects yourself that will be applied to all the ebooks you open (this requires some time and trial and error, but eventually all the ebooks are presented in the same way, to your exact preference).

Just create a folder called "Fonts" on the internal storage and drop any TTF fonts you want there - they will be picked up by Alreader and you will be able to select them. Search online - there are many font packs that were created specifically for e-ink devices (usually just bolder than the fonts they are based on).
