You upload your Word document and puts it through their product called Meatgrinder and boy, what a fitting name. You never end up with a product you would like (especially with your wishes) and tons of errors. And, don't forget, no change of fixing those in the ePUB.
Just do a quick search here on Smashwords and/or Meatgrinder...
I heard that they apparently now also allow upload of ePUB, but I would not trust them with it.
The meatgrinder is using some version of Calibre. I would give the direct ePub upload a go and see what happens. If it works, you get much more control over your eBook.
