It's okay, thanks for the help.

I guess I'm stuck either with having poorly spaced EPUBs or going through the HTML files and making hyperlinks. Doing notes and links in BookDesigner is actually slower I believe. I just wish Calibre would simply convert LRF to EPUB properly.

EDIT: I've figured out why the Calibre conversions are messing up the links, finally after all this time. I opened a converted EPUB in Sigil to check the code and noticed something weird. Calibre is adding an extra number to each link for some reason which was making them jump all over. Here is an example.

<a class="calibre5" href="../Text/53.xhtml#74">Part 1</a>

Notice the "#74" after xhtml? That shouldn't be there. Simply removing that and leaving just "53.xhtml" makes the link function correctly once it's saved as EPUB. Probably should report this to the Calibre creator, might be interested.
