HTM to EPUB Loses images

cacotigon · 03-31-2012, 10:21 PM

I've exported a Microsoft Word docx file (which contains pictures) to an HTM file which automatically creates a media folder which contains the embedded png/jpg files. I've viewed this HTM file from Internet explorer and the pictures show up fine there.

Upon importing the htm into Calibre, Calibre creates a zip archive which appears as the following:

However, after converting it to an epub, the pictures don't show up.

thanks for any help,

Any ideas? I tried using RTF which preserves images, but it screws up all the formatting.

Is this a "simple" html, i.e. from export -> "web page filtered".

Another possibility is to use LibreOffice and export as a .odt file.
