Unfortunately, yes. That is why I recommended you read post #2 in the kobopatch users & non-Kobo-supported languages thread I linked you to. The only way to reduce the pain is to avoid Power-off and/or reboot in favour of using Sleep when possible.

I don't think this is possible because Kobo have encrypted (or maybe obfuscated) their built-in system fonts. No-one (so far) has been able to find a way around this. But never say never! The best you can do currently is to sideload your own fonts (to the /fonts directory) renamed to Georgia and/or 'Avenir Next', as outlined in the kobopatch users & non-Kobo-supported languages thread. On the plus side this method does survive firmware upgrades so you only have to do it once.
