Ok! I did Genesis - Book of Job as one HTML for the time being, because that's how far I got to. But Dreamweaver was getting rather sluggish and the CPU was high.

The book of Psalms is really long and needs some special formatting so I am doing that in a new HTML. Once I am done with Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon, the rest will just slide in: it's just cut & paste. Those four are more complex due to being "poetry books" where most of the text is poetry/verses and the formatting is different.

I think I'll be able to fit Psalms - Malachi (last book in the old testament) in one HTML.
All of the New Testament fits into one HTML, I think - it's not that long.

This bible edition also includes the so called "Apocrypha" which is not normally in Swedish bibles since Luther rejected them... No idea why they suddenly made a comeback. I only just discovered that, and I'll put it in a separate book, assuming they are subsequent to each other. I don't quite understand where they are in the order of the bible, but google can probably tell me.

So I will end up with 4 HTML files in total, of varying length.

After that, I will need to:

1 - Merge them into one epub
2 - Solve the problem with the headers
3 - Add a page to announce the start of the Old and New Testaments respectively.
4 - Add a TOC.
5 - Add some kind of authentic looking first page with ISBN, publisher and relevant metadata.
6 - Add a cover.

Is that in the right order?

I get what you are saying with the regex (had to google it!) but it looks a bit daunting!

I'll take one step at a time though, and I might as well do any replacement at the end, of the whole job, after doing a backup! I can see how it could completely mess things up, unless you do it completely right, and I didn't quite follow the exact process....
