Several different styles are supported; use -k followed by a style combination you want, otherwise one is chosen at random.

but note the order of the letters doesn't matter (-k bis is the same as -k sib), so if you find that you think "fraktur bold" instead of "bold fraktur", just go with it.

Some other options are supported; see the output of -h.
