Interesting tips, Kacir.
Solitaire: Is there a reason you're not using Word, exporting the file and then using Sigil? I looked at Atlantis (though not in depth) and, unless its epub capabilities far exceed those of Word and Sigil, I'm not getting why Sigil wouldn't be more precise. There's also Office along with decent epub plugins for that, one of which I've also used.
I've had decent luck with as-yet unpublished story collections and all sorts of pieces I read from publicly using my PRS-950. However, I'm struggling with a book of experimental verse that might end up working best in a later rev of ePub.
Even it looks surprisingly lifelike exported from Word, opened in Open Office and saved with the writer2epub plugin. It looks especially clean (though incomplete) using Sigil. I'm working on that now.
What's cool is that the line breaks and quirky typography (all in the same font), and some of the line indents, seem to make it through.

The resulting EPUB looks very good on my Kobo Touch, with the ebook formatted as intended.
