Still intermittently missing Georgia Italic and sometimes Droid Sans Bold on the Kobo Libra in Publisher mode. The italics are OK if I select built-in Georgia.

If I go to Edit in Calibre, delete the font files of "missing" styles, use Embed Fonts and then Subset Fonts to add them back, then Check to rename the files it works.

Linux Mint 20.1, Mate Desktop, Calibre 5.14, epub2 conversion from a docx saved from LibreOffice Writer with Embed fonts ticked in Properties.

It's strange that it's only some ebook conversions from docx. Others with apparently the same fonts and styles are OK.

I tried NOT embedding ANY fonts at the conversion GUI and then adding them in the Editor. That didn't work either.

I suspect it's something to do with "Book Check" (the ladybird bug icon) in the editor when it renames the files and edits the CSS to match. If I don't run that the ebook is OK because the Kobo doesn't mind font files inside the epub with spaces in the name. Yet "Check" does seem to be also renaming the URL references as well as the fonts, basically replacing "space" with "_" in both.

The renamed URLs and font files SEEM to be the same. Check does object if you manually edit those to not match.
