Calibre adding blank space at the end of mobi's?

Helllo,
Has anyone seen this?
.doc > filtered .htm > epub(tweak) > .mobi.

View the .mobi with any Kindle or Kindle Previewer, at the very end of the book, the Progress(location) Bar on the ereader indicates less than 100%, sometimes even in the low 90%'s and won't progress further. This fools people as to how much they have left to read.

Skip the epub step = same results

The blank space is a bigger percentage in shorter books.

The epub is fine so it seems to be in the .mobi conversion.

Is there a switch I'm missing somewhere?

Doesn't happen with Kindlegen conversion.

Thanks for any help!
