Kobo Aura: Enable publisher fonts embedded in epub?

Hello,

I just purchased an epub, and on one of the first pages, there is a note recommending to enable "publisher's fonts" or "original fonts", because the author and publisher have created a font specifically for this book to designate character names.

I cannot find where to enable this feature in my Kobo Aura (first Aura, from 2013-2014, also please not I never updated firmware or connected to internet since purchase in 2014 - firmware version is 3.8.0 because I only purchase drm-free epubs).

This is the book in question (in french, it's a new one, couldn't find an english link for purchase with the font recommendation): https://www.epagine.fr/ebook/9782370...alain-damasio/

If I change the font in the "Aa" menu while reading a book, I only gt a list of fonts ("Default Document", Amasis, Avenir Next, Caecilia, Georgia, Gill Sans, Kobo Nickel, Malabar, Gothic, Ryumin, Dyslexie, OpenDyslexic) but that's it, no option to enable publisher's font. Is this a setting that is found elsewhere? Or could I circumvent the problem by copy-pasting the fonts contained in the epub in a common folder on the Aura?

Thanks for you help!

This is the content of the css files (I added return chars):
