Calibre editor has a and item under Tools: embed referenced fonts
(this may work if the font is found on your system: You say the font works for these books )

If the books are for ANY KIND of distribution, there are legal hoops dictated by the font creator that MUST be followed. (Not all involve spending money ).

There is a slightly different method for when the above embed fails.
You must use the File menu to add a font (use) to the book. it imports the files AND suggests (a clipboard) the @font to add *paste and edit) to the CSS or (where used) HTML file .
Thanks! Yes, it is for our own family's personal use, no distribution.

Errors:
Ok, I received a 'no embeddable fonts found' and strangely, if I view the book in the calibre viewer it shows the fonts, but if I view it in the editor the page is blank (images still showing).

More specifically, the error is 'unexpecteded missing generic font family (stylesheet.css).' So I clicked the stylesheet.css, and it looks like it's a font called 'oppjfiltckennerleypro', which with some google looks like ltc kennerly pro.
