@nabsltd: Umm if you just want to directly embed a font file, simply use the File->New file->Import font

The purpose of the *Embed fonts tool* is to try to *automate* embedding of existing referenced fonts.

And once again, information for a font can only be shown if calibre knows what font file is involved, which it does not if it could not find a matching font file in the first place. In the case of Choose Font Family you are choosing a font family from all existing files on the system, so calibre has all the information from the font files. In the case of Embed referenced font, calibre has to go from a CSS font spec to a font file. When that process fails, there is no font file to get information from. I dont know how to put it any clearer than that.

@hidden.platypus: In that case open a bug report and attach the docx file with the embedded fonts.
