I see that setup can be only be called once. There's the addFont method but I don't know how to select after added. There's some way to clear the font and load another one?

drawMultiColumnFormatted() allows mixing fonts, sizes and colors. Look at the example, and here you specify fonts with @1, @2, etc where the number is dictated by the order in which you setup() and addFont()- It's note quite finished.

Otherwise I recommend you keep around different ofxFontStash objects, each setup with the font you need, or just destroy your current fontstash and setup again

ofxFontStash font;
font.setup("myFont.ttf");
font.draw()
....
font = ofxFontStash();
font.setup("myFont2.ttf");
font.draw()
