The main metadata that I add is the blurb which would normally be on the back cover of a paperback, a few tags and maybe a new cover. I thought I had to convert to do this.

I phrased the question badly. I'm not trying to embed a font, but the books seem to already have embedded fonts which stick like glue and won't go away no matter which font I choose on the Libra. So it seems to be "embedded" or like it's carved into stone somewhere deep in the mysteries of technology.

I'm not very techie. Please bear in mind that I can only just about use Calibre and haven't a clue what CSS is.

Thanks.
