Steps to reproduce: - Read the attached file "utf-8 Tables - PenguinCEO.epub" into the calibre viewer: quite every glyph is correctly rendered, both at page 1 (system fonts) and at page 2 (Garamond embedded font);
- Read the attached file "utf-8 Tables - PenguinCEO.epub" into KA1: quite none of the glyphs is rendered, both at page 1 (system fonts) and at page 2 (Garamond embedded font);
- Tried setting the KA1 to render with system fonts (for example: "Georgia") and with the editor's font. It doesn't work in any case.
Asked about in this forum, but with no fortune.

As mentioned in the thread you reference, your EB Garmond font supports 9 of the glyphs you are wanting to display. When I tested with code2000, most of the glyphs rendered correctly. Those that didn't have had their definitions changed or added since code2000 was created 20 years ago.
IMHO, it isn't a Kobo bug that the font you used does not support the needed glyphs and the RMSDK renderer does not look for missing glyphs in other fonts.
