I do all my formatting in MS Word, using lots of macros etc. Then I convert to Epub and from Epub to Mobi format.

Text is fine, I always get a faithful reproduction but there is a known issue with images. Somehow the conversion process to epub always does something wrong, they either reverse or corrupt or colour goes wrong.

My current workaround is to go from RTF to HTML then Epub. I convert many files a day, and the extra steps are a real pain. Is there any way to cure this now? I have been updating every week to see if this is finally fixed but nothing has appeared yet.
