I always side-load my ebooks via Win Explorer copy/paste so I was not aware of Calibre's problem with recognizing a Nook.

You said you would "start" with systems/fonts. Is there another thing that I could try? None of this makes sense. About 20% of the books have successfully converted, but why wouldn't all of them? Just about all of them started as RTF's that I converted to Mobi's when I had a Kindle. So, despite all of them starting at the same point, 80% won't work with this plug-in.

I don't really know why it works for some of your ebooks and not others.
In my limited experience with manually tweaking the format of ebooks in epub form I noticed that there is significant variance in their structures which I think would make quite a challenge for any given format conversion program to handle all of them equally effective.
Perhaps you can try converting them in 2-passes: first from rtf to epub without the font conversion plug_in (by just disabling the plug_in) then from epub to epub with the font conversion plug_in.

Nothing seems to be working and my only guess is that the problem is that this is a Nook Simple Touch Glow and something about that must be different. If anyone can help with this, I would greatly appreciate it...

In case it might help, here's the content of my configuration file for the plug-in (C:\Documents and Settings\(user_name)\Application Data\calibre\plugins\font_config.json):
{
"font_config_sys_font_path": "system/fonts/",
"font_config_mode": "USE_EMB_FONT",
"font_config_output": "default",
"font_config_ext_font_path": "system/media/sdcard/my fonts/",
"font_config_font": "MinionPro",
"font_config_ext": ".otf",
"font_config_emb_font_path": "C:/Program Files/Calibre2/resources/embeddedfonts/"
}
