Just tried converting it to EPUB, and getting the same error.

Thank you for the reply and potential fix, Kovid. How do I incorporate that fix in the program? I'm assuming if I can find the "embed_fonts.py" file, I can open it in plain text editor and update the file there, right? If so, where is the embed_fonts.py file?

Ok, I followed the steps under "Windows Development Environment". Ran "echo %CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM%" which it returned the value "%CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM%". After that, I'm not sure what to do. I can't seem to find the "src" folder after completing the steps. The folders are not listed in File Explorer, nor are they coming up in the command prompt.

No need to do anything special, the fix will be in the next release. Or as Kovid pointed out you could run from source.
