I'll have some extra time for a while I guess, since I found out I'm layed off as of Monday (after almost 20 years), so maybe I'll finally get some stuff like these conversions done between looking for work/figuring out what to do.
Oh Brian so sorry to hear that!

If you convert the topaz to SVGs using non calibre way you can then use a free program called Prince that will convert the SVG images to PDFs then just merge it to one big PDF and OCR the PDF and the copy usually comes out pretty clean and has italics.
