Geoffr,
I too have your same firmware (4-5-9587) but I don't remember any 'Freedom to advanced fonts control' choice.
I did not sideloaded a different version of these fonts, I just syncronized the ereader with KOBO via wireless, just after having bought it.
How do I install patches?
I thought that synchronization would have been sufficient in order to have the most updated version...
Thank you again!

The two fonts mentioned have a lot more glyphs/characters than the other fonts on the device. This allows display of hiragana, katakana and kanji along with Latin characters required by Japanese typography. You do have to wonder about using 4 different alphabets.
For the patches, take a look at
Instructions for patching firmware 4.5.9587 in the Kobo Developer's Forum. These are not official Kobo patches. These are not from Kobo and require you have the correct firmware version to match the patches.
