Hello,

I have a series of children's books that appear normally in Calibre, but when copied to their Kobo Libra H2O the book appears without fonts. It's a children's book and does have pictures, just no words (blank where the text would be). It happens for the entire series.

I tried changing through every font on the device but nothing. I tried viewing the 'edit' of a book and clicking on the 'bug' icon, it gives the error 'Unexpected Missing Generic Font Family'.

I'm not sure how to fix this for each book in the series, and I'm a total novice in any sort of book editing (I can click plugins just fine though). Any advice would be well appreciated, thank you.
