Embolden -slightly- a font

Hi

Kobo implemented some years ago a very successful "Type Genius" feature. I do not use anymore a Kobo but I dream about emboldening slightly my font of choice. I tried it many times, without any success and so I have to read with another one.

We can do it -say- with FontForge (Elements - Styles) then Change weight except that I do not manage to export any emboldened font. Ths is really frustrating.

Could someone try it or give a detailed recipe on how to do it? It's an opensource font.
The otf and ttf versions can be downloaded from here. I would appreciate having a modified normal and italic versions.
