[QUOTE=dwanthny;1196517]The line breaks would only become fixed in this scenario if you had hard breaks (used enter to start a new line) in your rtf file before you saved it as html filtered.

hmm repeating the test: open .rtf file save as filtered html - confirm that I want office specific tags removed.

close word. then repoen word & re-open htm - change window size & confirm flow still works.

add it to calibre, convert to mobi without structure detection options.
flow seems Ok ! - I'm sure that's the same process as before!

can't see any split words on a quick scroll through. so that's a workable work-around.

still does not expla

in the origi

nal issue though

PS seems there's also a bug with merge books & ZIP that I reckon I've seen before. I decided to save the above work & merge it into my original book versions. so I do merge with delete option, wanting it to overwrite mobi and add zip to 1st selected book.

the ZIP file apparently vanishes!

i.e. before merge. book 1 has pdf, rtf mobi, book 2 has zip, mobi. after merge, zip has been lost ?
- well actually not totally lost - if I try open path to calibre folder, it's there, but it's not listed as an available format to view. if I shut down & restart calibre, then it is re-listed as an available format
