I am somewhat surprised to see that I have to go to the trouble of doing all this work on these fonts which were (as I understand it) especially developed for the Kobo? Why would the generous author not finish the work to make it easy to download the fonts directly for immediate use??

They are free to download on Github at this site (if I am allowed to give this address here?).

Am I to understand that they cannot be used directly at all?
Sorry, no idea about those particular fonts, as I don't use them. I guess if they don't work correctly, then they cannot be used without modifying them. You'll have to ask the author for the explanation.
