Any of the google fonts like Open Sans or Noto Serif will have the font styles issue if you wanted to play with it. It's most noticeable when you select an extra bold serif font and the preview returns a sans-serif normal font.

Don't roll back. What you can do instead is install a portable version of the calibre 7 and use that with this plugin and the current version with everything else.

So I have been using the Generate Cover extension. Very handy,. But all of a sudden I have been getting the following error. calibre, version 8.4.0

This is on every book I try to use generate cover on. I have tried uninstalling it, restarting calibre, and reinstalling the extension and still have the issue. Any ideas?
