The "Could not find reasonable point at which to split error" means when creating the epub, calibre couldn't determine a natural place to split the resultant html. The ePub spec requires the blocks of html be less then 300k and calibre defaults to breaking them into 260k size chunks. Most ereader devices won't read the book unless this is done.

You can correct this a couple of ways.

1. Find a different source file.

2. Run the conversion with a directory set under the debug option (see attached). This will give you the book at various stages of HTML processing after the conversion is run. You can open The input (or other stage) with SIGIL then save it as an ePub file then convert that ePub to ePub conversion to clean things up.

Review this thread for more detailed info.
