Thanks for the tip - yes, Pages will export to pretty much any format - Word, ePub, PDF, RTF, and plain text... I saved as RTF and tried pulling that straight into Sigil, but it was way too messy and didn't maintain the bold and italics...

I hadn't heard of the other resources you mentioned, so I'll give that a try... If all else fails, I can always do the search/replace method - was just wondering if there was a more automated way of getting this done!
