I have a bunch of ebooks that were gifted to me and which I subsequently imported to Calibre. The program was great for organizing a bunch of files whose corresponding metadata file was unclear. I can now easily view them in my Kindle Fire.

However, a number of books are lacking line-spacing in between paragraphs and in between dialogue. Others have boxes or boxed question marks in place of apostrophes and other special characters.

I think the problem lies with the original files and the way they were originally organized (with the ebook and metadata files not always placed in the same folder). So I do not believe this is a conversion error. However, it would be great if there were any theories as to how to bulk correct these issues using Calibre.

Thank you for your input(s).
