So I made some progress, I used command (not sure if syntax is right): pandoc --pdf-engine=xelatex test.epub -s -o test.pdf

And it gave me error: qt.qpa.fonts: Unable to open default EUDC font: "C:\\Windows\\FONTS\\EUDC.TTE"

Lualatex gives the same error! I will try others meanwhile...

wit: What do you mean by quad, it is not pdf engine?

LaTeX loads \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} for a couple years now, even if it is not explicitly loaded by the template, so most characters such as ë will come out fine when they are supported by your font. However, the error message says that the U+2003 (em space) character is not recognized by LaTeX, which is not unexpected. I would replace it with \quad or just plain spaces.

The problem is that your file contains Unicode characters that pdflatex does not handle directly (for instance, to typeset ë, one has to encode it as \"e in the document). Set --pdf-engine to xelatex or lualatex to use a Unicode-aware TeX engine.
