well the whole htm thing is drifting off -topic from the original issue of split wor

ds

for which there seems no obvious explanation. I'm inclined to blame it on workign with a huge + over-edited .rtf & move on.

There used to be a way ( in older versions of word) to display all the extra formating characters but I can't find that in word 2007. I read up on how word tracks edits & have tried to remove all stored changes but maybe that does not even apply in .rtf

Something is causing calibre, during conversion, to throw in an occasional spurious line break either mid -word or mid- sentence. I'd like to track it down, out of geeky curiosity, but don't know how.. If I get this scenario with any other books then I'll report back.

i didn't get an answer to whether the 7.26 release made any changes to conversion code ?

I don't really want the hassle of rolling back to 7.24, reconverting & re-inspecting to see if that makes any difference, if the code was not changed at all !
