I have only just read your helpful message, Helen, my apology for the delay in replying.

I launch Calibre, then in the menu-bar, click Preferences, the 'Get plugins to enhance Calibre.'

There is no mention of Kobo in the list that appears, but I wonder whether choosing 'Modify ePub' might help ?

However, I wonder if what you suggest would have prevented a difficulty that I encountered in the interval before I attempted the above.

I down-loaded a PDF-file and launched Calibre. I used 'Add books' to import the file into Calibre, checked that the text of the PDF-file was complete, then converted the file to EPUB.

I now checked the EPUB-file for completeness, and find that only about the 1st 20% of the file has been converted, and the rest of the file appears simply as intermittent horizontal lines.

Why should that be happening ?
