Have created book in LR CC, but unable to upload to Blurb. Have also tried to create PDF to upload to Blurb and get same error.

An error occurred in creating the book.

An error occurred adding text and fonts to the book.

Have been dealing with Blurb for 2-3 days and they recommended that I contact LR. All fonts from LR CC or Typekit.

Thanks for any help.

    Can you provide more details? Number of fonts in the book, which fonts... are the images in a collection? Are they on your local drive? Can you duplicate the collection and change the font to a system font and try to export to PDF again?

    I will have to try to change fonts. It's almost 200 pages and I thought I got the fonts from Typekit. This is a book that I made in the winter for some friends and only realized that it didn't up load when I went to Blurb last week.

    Can I suggest-  First make a duplicate of the Book in the Collections panel and work on the "Duplicate" to test to pdf.

    [Ctrl+Alt+A]  will select ALL text cells 'globally' in the whole book, then change the font to a common system font in the TYPE panel of the book module. (don't alter the font 'Size' globally!)

    Now test the PDF export. If successful then fonts were the problem.
