Thanks for the report, @BhuvaneshS-27, and for the Engines screenshots!
Aptos is the reason. It's Office's default font since 2023, but Office doesn't install it like a normal font: it downloads it from Microsoft's cloud fonts for Office's own use. Other programs, Filee and LibreOffice included, can't see it, so they use a similar font instead.
The fix: install Aptos from Microsoft's own download, then convert again:
During the conversion, Filee's card should show "Missing document fonts: Aptos". Its Get fonts button opens a Google Fonts search today, which can't find Aptos; #1425 makes it open the Microsoft download above.
Also worth updating to 2.4.0 (you're on 2.3.0). Please tell us whether installing Aptos fixes it.
