Make sure you're using "Financial Times - UK printed edition" built-in recipe.

I have not altered the recipe from the Calibre program (wouldn't even know where to start). Do you have a different recipe?
I use the built-in "Financial Times - UK printed edition" built-in recipe but saved it and tweaked it as below. I use it on a headless server so I enter username and password on command-line (script). I'll highlight the only changes I've made. Using the built-in recipe should work, since my changes are simply cosmetic (US edition to avoid UK local news.) I hope this helps, but let us know if you track down some weird issue.
