That error indicates the book you are trying to convert uses fixed layout. Calibre conversion is designed to handle only reflowable layout books correctly. PDF format is much better suited to books that use fixed layout.

See the section "From KFX" toolbar action in the first post of this thread for information on how you can avoid this error and convert the book to PDF instead of EPUB.
