I just purchased one of those massive 25 MB books from Amazon...complete works of Thomas Hardy. It's very decently formatted, but i HATE when ebooks have "dumbquotes" instead of smartquotes.
I've been running it through Calibre for almost an hour now mobi>mobi -- the only option selected is "Smarten punctuatiion", nothing else being touched. The book _does_ have numerous illustrations...but should it be taking this long? Any estimates based on past experiences? And, more important, can Calibre be expected to convert such large books?
