However this didn't work with my epub file when I tried it. So I'm going to sleep and keep searching.
You need to make sure the font file has the correct name -- on a Windows computer, open it with Windows Font Viewer to see the correct name. And after copying the font files into the fonts directory (the name must be fonts is all lower case), you need to power cycle the Kobo before using the font.

I've attached a copy of Code2000 to this message. It displays a good chunk of CJK.
