I know this probably isn't the best place to ask this question but I am getting no response on the Generate Cover forum and I know there are some power users on here. And as this happens when I run FFDL I thought it kind of related! ;-)

I have a question that has been bugging me for a long time. When I use Generate Cover (or FFDL with Update Cover checked) on a fic with comments (summary) I wind up with a cover showing the HTML tags. I try to edit the comments to remove the HTML but Calibre seems to always add it back in.

Such as below:

<div><p>Merlin Emrys is 26 years old. He's not expecting to be diagnosed with cancer and told he's just as likely to die as he is to live.</p></div>

My custom text field:
Tags: {tags}
Summary: {comments}

What am I doing wrong? Is there a setting to strip HTML (or translate it)?
