The HTML output seems to have all the correct accented letters, but when it is converted to the other formats some (not all) of the accented characters are not displayed correctly, so I imagine something needs to be added during the conversion from HTML to EPUB/LRF.
I know it's possible to change the device fonts, but I don't want to do that.
I've also tried zipping the HTML and adding it to Calibre and then converting that to EPUB/LRF with no change in the output results.
Any ideas?

I don't believe calibre supports embedding fonts with ePUB but I do know you can embed fonts in LRF.
To embedd fonts in BookCreator you need to add the following options in the "Additional Param" tab in the "Param" text box
Code:
--serif-family=SERIF_FAMILY
The serif family of fonts to embed
--sans-family=SANS_FAMILY
The sans-serif family of fonts to embed
--mono-family=MONO_FAMILY
The monospace family of fonts to embed
In the param you would have to add the switches like so
Code:
--serif-family="SERIF_FAMILY" --sans-family="SANS_FAMILY"
with spaces between commands and the font name in quotes.
