It is overwhelming to get responses from people, most of whom have thousands of posts to their credit.
The discouraging news seems to be that there seems to be no way of converting word into a good epub.
Toxaris, you mention: "Once the ePUB is created, make any changes there". The issue is that I am not a html pro (I am just writing a book), but once I start editing directly in Sigil, it seems that it will soon require me to have a good working knowledge of html.
So, I need to think about what to do going forward. As an aside, had a basic question. It looks like epub/sigil does not recognize "formatting styles" of word. For example, I created a style for "normal italic" and applied it to some portions of the word-doc, but when I view it in epub/sigil, those portions just come up as "normal" (and not "italicized). So, does it mean I have to "re-do" all the formatting (bold, italics, underline etc. etc.) that I had done in the word doc, in the epub file?
