Hi

I installed one week ago the latest Sigil 0.7.2 on LMDE 64 bits (Linux) from a deb made by DiapDealer.

I always use the same converter (writer2xhtml) to produce the EPUB from an odt file. This time, using exactly the same settings as usual, I converted my odt file to produce an EPUB. On a first look, everything seemed OK.

However, On opening it with Sigil, I realized something was missing: all the non breaking spaces (&-nbsp-; ) that I had placed on my odt file before converting to EPUB had disappeared on the target EPUB.

Does somebody know if this new version of Sigil "cleans" intently all these entities? I have turned Pretty print off and it still happens.

Still puzzled by what happened. Maybe Sigil has nothing to do with this.
