rexall - if you still have the problem and you have Word 2007/10/13 then try saving the file as a DOCX and using the
DOCX_Input plug-in.
I've been using it for a couple of weeks. I can produce much cleaner output using DOCX_Input to convert DOCX to EPUB, than I was ever able to get by converting RTF or Filtered HTML to EPUB .
Consequently editing the EPUB in Sigil is now a viable proposition, primarily because I don't get
any MS specific HTML in the EPUB.
Plus the docx files are up to 90% smaller than rtf's, and the conversions are about 30-40% faster. For what more could one ask, I ask

.
The documents I convert are very vanilla, if a PDF has a complex layout, images, tables, infographics etc then I put up with the PDF. Which is less of a hardship since Moz put a FAQ PDF reader in Firefox.
You might want to adjust the plugin source code by hand to set the default option values to suit your needs as I did - see post #38 in the plug-in thread.
