EPUB export losing spaces between some words

Hi,

 

I am new to InDesign and EPUB creation so go easy on me for my lack of foundational knowledge. 

 

When I export my ebook to EPUB format, I am losing spaces between some words (but not all). For example, "fill it with" comes out as "fillitwith". I am using InDesign version 16.1.0.20 on a Mac. My font is Courier New. I checked the hidden characters and my spaces are shown there, but not in the EPUB conversion. Is my problem with my font selection? 

 

I tried changing my paragraph and character styles. I tried changing the font to something else that worked - but I would really prefer to keep my existing font. 

 

Thanks!

So you're saying the spaces are fine in some fonts, but not Courier New? If so, that certainly sounds like a font issue. Are you embedding the font?

What format is the font? Type 1 is unsupported and cannot be embedded. What EPUB reader are you using?
