I've seen this in eBooks not made (well, not noticeably) by Word.

Nothing. It just sits on my desktop and stares at me with those big puppy eyes.

Apple uses WebKit; they were the ones who started the project as a fork of KDE's engine. I believe ADE wrote their own engine. |

I use Sigil sometimes to break up Omnibus editions I've purchased into individual volumes.
Sometimes, if I want to dump website stories or articles into my eReader, I'll use Sigil as a halfway point to tidy things up for the auto-generated epub and maybe even put on a cover if I've feeling particularly anal. |

I've got some books over 2MBs where once the duplicate images are deleted and I compress the images that are left brings the book down to around 500kb. That's a huge difference for one file, especially when there's absolutely no reason for it. |

I use it (in combination with Notepad++ and a bunch of Autohotkey scripts) to convert plain-text Public Domain transcripts to formatted ePubs.
Love that preview window for making adjustments to CSS! |

Use Reports to see thumbnails of the images (or explode the EPUB, and print a 'Proof sheet' from Windows) Pick the best one, Use S&R to change each of the others to the chosen one. Then use 'delete unused images' Check the report again to see if you missed any |
