It is a nice font and it is a shame to mess with it, maybe someone more knowledgable could take a look at the 'j' glyph in the original font and fix it without changing the weight. Also the bold versions I just created by using the default fontforge parameters, someone else might be able to do a better job.

I made these changes:

* Changed name of ligature tables from 'lig' to 'liga'.
* Increased weight of Regular/Italic by 4 em units.
* Created Bold/BoldItalic versions with weight increased by 50 em units.
* Changed PANOSE weights to book/bold.
* Added 'old-style' kern tables.
* Changed font name from Rosarivo to Rojarivo.

Edit: I've attached an alternative with the Bold/BoldItalic versions created by increasing the weight by only 36 em units. This is not a full bold, more of a semi-bold I think, but it doesn't distort the shape of the glyphs as much.
Thank you very much!
