MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Using Sigil and the calibre editor: DiapDealer's help needed

No version of Sigil is going to play nicely with calibre's editor, in my opinion. Sigil is going to alter (potentially in structure and definitely in content) any epub created/saved/beautified/fixed with calibre's editor.

Like I said; I'll see if I can package up a version of 0.7.4 when I get time, but it's frankly not going to be able to be a priority right now.

My recommendation would be to choose one editor or the other, and not to mix (or at least not to go back to Sigil after editing with calibre). I'm still not quite certain why you think 0.7.4 will make it easier to use both editors on the same epub. It's still going to alter your code--regardless of whether or not it barks about a missing doctype.
