I know I can change the epub. Often I would convert it to html, edit whatever in Word, open it in Sigil and save it again as epub.

Recently I was asking how to convert an epub book which was completely in a bold font to mobi so the font would become normal.

Kovidgoyal suggested to use the Filter Style Information in the conversion dialog and filter out font-weight. And it works nicely!

For removing the spaces I thought that there would be some similar simple solution in the Look & Feel, perhaps putting something in Extra CSS or Filter Style Information…

Regards
What is seems that you are doing is taking these eBooks and making them harder to edit. There is no reason to convert ePub to HTML just to crap them up with Word. Leave them in ePub and use Sigil to fix what's wrong. Using Calibre to convert to fix things that are easily fixable with Sigil also also a bad idea. All you do is (very possibly) make the code that much harder to deal with.
