I had the same problem, but use Book Designer for formatting. It drove me crazy until I realized that the text encoding was the problem. BD defaults to Cyrillic, but there's an option on the File menu to change it. I embed the font (I use Gill Sans, though Calibri and Cambria work just as well) in the book file, which eliminates having to install any fonts on the reader.
