I understand that coding is complex and does many many tasks.

When I get a moment I will provide more detail and information on the problem I am seeing.
I am running up to date Arch Linux. Perhaps I have a dependency missing.

I get the feeling it is some kind of PDF layering issue.

My temporary fix is to take the ebook-convert output pdf file using the above command, see previous comment, and then post process this as follows

inkscape in_file.pdf --pages=all --export-filename=out_file.pdf

Inkscape get's rid of the text transparency problem but removes the useful pdf document index and in document clickable links from the output pdf.

It lets me print the books for now.
