You might find that there is a difference between fonts you find online and the ones Kobo furnishes on its readers. That is what I found when I sideloaded Gill Sans. It was almost the same, but with much different weight and maybe slightly different spacing. This led to fiddling with Kobo's weight settings for the first time since find a pleasing universal setting long ago. I got it close to the look of the stock font, but not quite.

That's why I followed the procedure to patch the original font to the reader.

YMMV with the other two fonts.
