Word's filtered HTML ouput works for me just fine. But at quite a time expense.

1st Process
1. Convert RTF to epub - Error occurs

2nd Process Workround
1. Save RTF from Word to Webfiltered HTML
2. Open folder add new HTML file to existing book - new zip file appears
3. Delete original HTML file and partner folder created by word
4. Convert zip file to epub - perfection

If you have to repeat 2nd process like I do 30 times a day you get to see why 1st process is to me at least more attractive - well if it worked it would be.
