I've used Calibre some (not a total newbie with it). I have a MS Mord (2010) doc novel. I've gotten it converted to an Epub file for my Nook. But it wasn't "perfect". I've cleaned it up, removed a lot of the Word formatting, etc. Now I am trying to get it into a perfect EPub format for Nook users.
There is no Table of Contents, the only graphics/images are front and back covers (which I can leave off if need be).
Calibre says save as Web Page, Filtered. I did that, then Calibre would not recognize it when I tried to add it to convert. Another suggestion they had was to save as an Open Doc text. I did that, Calibre woudln't recognize it. (The first shows on my computer as a FireFox html doc (htm), the second as an .odt file.
Savings as a Single Web page or Web Page also gets me no where.
I have the most current Calibre.
Best luck I have had so far was saving as a PDF file (which Calibre recommends NOT doing). But there are a few glitches with that.
If it would be helpful, I can get you access to the converted PDF file to an Epub format.
Advice/ suggestions? My goal is to have a very high quality formatted output ebook, starting with a Word doc.
