Ok. I'll try deregister, clean up, and reinstall.

It happens a lot here. Example attached (ASIN: B009M84ZXE).
Besides removing the font file, the AZW3 has its CSS like this:
Spoiler:

Code:
@font-face
{
font-family: "TemaCantante";
font-style: italic;
font-weight: normal;
src:url(XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX);
}
@font-face
{
font-family: "AT Sackers Gothic";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: light;
src:url(XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX);
}
@font-face
{
font-family: "Garamond Three";
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
src:url(XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX);
}
@font-face
{
font-family: "Garamond Three";
font-style: italic;
font-weight: normal;
src:url(XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX);


The path for the font file is replaced by this X's. The font file is also not present.

Sure, AZW3 is a better format to keep (and edit/convert). KFX seems to have a terrible markup inside (as the converted EPUBs indicate).
