It will stop the zip processing of all html files. Note that it's not just images that are affected. Any html page that uses a relative link to another file will be affected whether that other file is html, jpg, png or whatever. The processing does other work. Look at the options for that plugin to see what you can control and look at the zip content after processing with that plugin to see some of the additional files it creates.

Would that affect the conversion from html to epub? Will I end up with an epub file with missing images? I should probably say that I don't intend to keep the files in the Calibre library after conversion.

I don't recommend disabling it if you are processing anything other than single html files, and even there, I'm not sure why you'd bother to disable it.

Where will I find these particular conversion settings?

Search and replace.

I am not familiar with regexes and made a mess of things last time I tried using them. Can I just paste the text I want to change with the text I want to change it into?
|
Yes, you can just search for text1 and replace with text2, but knowing some regex would help.

ETA OK, so I just read a few threads on regexes; am I right to assume they're not used to replace text within a file?

In Calibre, most regex is used to change metadata, not book content, however, you can use regex S&R to change content during conversion from one format to another (or from one format to the same format). If what you are going to do is complex editing, then Sigil is the right tool.
