MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Months of Runaround From KDP Support: Font Embedding Fails...HELP!

So, I'm not 100% positive that this works as I have not fully reassembled the book yet, but KDP apparently errors when you give it a heading declaration with a class that affects the font. Never mind that this is wholly legitimate HTML/CSS...

So, it is absolutely a case of there being a bug in the KDP conversion process. The workaround is moving from this:

<h2 class="fontchange"><a href="link details">Chapter One</a></h2>

to this:

<h2><span class="fontchange"><a href="link details">Chapter One</a></span></h2>

Once I confirm that this is the issue I will write Amazon a bug report and send it to support. (I'll also make sure to check back in here.)
