I just ordered a Kobo Glo HD, because I am fed up with Amazon that I cannot downgrade,

and just found the exact feature that was the reason for my new purchase, and was missing from my Kindle; adjusting 'text weight'. I never knew how to call this, but it is the best feature on the Kobo and this is the exact reason why I don't like the look of the text on my Kindle.

Now, is there a way I can adjust 'text weight' on a jailbroken Kindle Paperwhite 2? It is very similar to the 'boldness' of text not exactly the same, as it also kind of involves the blurriness/sharpness of the text.

This would be a great feature if I could adjust it somehow on my Kindle.

Here's a pic from the Kobo:

Many thanks in advance!
