hello, I have a doc file that is a long reference work that was given a rudimentary table of contents by someone bookmarking each section and creating a hyperlink to that bookmark. It is quite long so the bookmarks are necessary. I converted it to html and RTF & PDF all the links work perfectly, however, whenever I convert it with calibre, none of the hyperlinks work. I have tried mobi and epub, and the hyperlinks all fail. Is there a way to get them to recognize them? Thanks for the help.

What format are you using in Calibre as the 'from' format? I would have thought that your best chance was to save the .doc file as 'Web Page (filtered)' and convert from that format.

Converted it to or saved as html and RTF & PDF via Word?

however, whenever I convert it with calibre

Convert what? Calibre doesn't convert doc files so you need to let us know what you are converting so we can help.

none of the hyperlinks work. I have tried mobi and epub, and the hyperlinks all fail.

You didn't say what format you were using for the conversions.

If I had a doc file I would save it as html filtered or web page filtered or some such filtered. I would add that html to calibre and convert it to ePub and expect the links to be maintained through the conversion.

Unfortunately at this point I have no idea what you are trying to convert.

Sorry for the lack of info. I meant save, not convert. I had imported the html version, but I just read your comment and realize I didn't do the "filtered" html, I had no idea what that was. Just did it and it works perfectly! Thank you for all your help!

I'm glad you got it to work and welcome to Mobileread. :)
