The reason I suggested removing the fonts is because most eBooks don't need the embedded fonts they have.

Now lets see if your problem can be solved. How are you converting this ePub3 to read on your Kindle? if you are converting to Mobi then the fonts will be stripped as Mobi does not support embedded fonts. You need to convert to Kf8 (AZW3).

Use calibre to do the conversion. Do not use send-to-Kindle. Now, once you've gotten the eBook on your Kindle and you've opened it, go to the Aa menu and select Publisher Font.

That should do it.
