    Hi Janis

    People do sometimes get these problems with direct EPUB exports from InDesign. It most likely means an ‘illegal character’ is being used in the name of an image somewhere. If you’d care to post the EPUB on Dropbox or similar I can let you know very easily. BTW the (93,72) in the error message mean line 93, character 72 is the exact place that the error occurs so if you ever wanted to delve into the code you do know exactly where to look… but as I say I can offer to have a quick look and tell you.

    Hi Janis. What type of font is the one you are having problems with? For EPUB fonts must be TrueType or OpenType so that would be the first thing to check.

    Beyond that it sounds as if the individual word positioning that InDesign uses is causing problems perhaps?

    If you would prefer to use PostScript fonts, to have text positioned by text frame instead of by word and to add your read aloud text highlighting without coding then please give my company’s software CircularFLO a try! (https://CircularFLO.com)

    If you are looking for fixed layout KF8 then CircularFLO https://www.CircularFLO.com is commercial software which creates KF8 directly from InDesign and supports live text without these issues.

    I have a feeling that the fonts are working in Kindle Previewer because the fonts are present on the Mac/PC you are running Kindle Previewer on. They then fail when the file is moved to a device without the fonts active.

    Have you tried deactivating the fonts on the Mac/PC before opening the eBook? They should still appear when reading the eBook if the fonts are working correctly within it.
