NO.

There are multiple resellers of the Jinke/Hanlin e-book readers. Astak is the American reseller and Lbook is a VAR(Value Added Reseller) in Ukraine and Russia. Lbook adds a lot of improvements to the stock Chinese firmware. Since the hardware from all the resellers is the same, the Lbook firmware can be downloaded and used on the hardware distributed by Astak.

I have a *feeling* that you are trying to change the reader font or font size in the bookshelf main menu, and not CoolReader's main menu. CoolReader is the reader for FB2/TXT/HTML/DOC/RTF files and also for EPUB files with a little modification to the book's filename to trick the bookshelf application. You can add all the fonts that you want for the CoolReader application to use, and you can pick from a large number of font sizes to render the books text into, BUT that must be done through CoolReader's settings menu and NOT the bookshelf setting menu.

The nice thing about CoolReader is that you only need to configure the default font size CoolReader and then any files that you load in the format that you configure the default font face and size for will be rendered in that default font face and size. There is no need to configure fonts for each book file separately.
