2) Some fonts appear in their italic form where in Word the font was in its regular mode.

3) With some fonts the space before an bolded or italicised word disappeared so I had two words stuck together.

4) With some fonts bolded and italicised words appear in their regular form.


I have looked at the outputted epub files in the Calibre epub editor, and was able to figure-out how to fix issue 1, but am at a loss for the other issues at this point. I tried applying the bold tags to words what should of been bolded but weren't, but those tags didn't take. And I did not see anything that would allow me to correct the wrongly italicised fonts.

Any advice that can be provided will be appreciated.
I suggest you repost this in the Calibre Conversion subforum, after reading the relevant section of the manual if you've not already done so == >> Convert Microsoft Word documents and studying the Demo.docx file you'll find there

Oh, read the sticky at Calibre|Conversion about how to ask questions about solving conversion problems before you post.

Added - thanks for the Karma - but same deal, if you have problems with ePUB-Tools raise them in its thread in Workshop, no point in telling me about them in a Karma message
