Question Could i change the font size choice without jailbreak?

i got a paperwhite.And i noticed there's 8 choice of font size when i read a mobi or txt book.
When i read in bus,i'd like choose 7th font size;and choose 6th font size in bed.I think 6th is a little small and 7th is too large.could i redefine font size option of PW without jailbreak?
i tried to modify kindle system,but it was a linux system and full of hex code...I may modify a html or lua setting file but cant mod this.
waiting for ur reply,thx!

You could do the whole usb downloader, diags and SSH business, but it would be much easier to just jailbreak your kindle.

No, the USB downloader would need the magic key. And since the power key doesn't qualify for that, that's about that.

OP: you would need the jailbreak in any case. The unmodified KPW won't flash a tampered firmware bundle.

May not be a forever restriction.
I think the "magic key" sequence can be found, just haven't had to do it (yet) myself. (the hall effect device has gpio pull-up attachments)
