Its a long process but it works for me I don't even use sigil to split on chapter page breaks just mark the chapter heading etc And then import into calibre to do an epub to epub conversion.

True, the word conversions are very bad. However, I feel the Calibre conversions are also not very nice. I know the phrase 'garbage in - garbage out', but still I feel that Calibre adds to much code which I find redundant or not desirable. I choose good clean Sigil code every time.
