I have been somewhat successful, but it is hard to maintain formatting, which is somewhat important, in the font I need to be able to read the files.
My question is this: How do you convert a book from HTML format, keeping the books index intact and bookmarks or pointers to all the chapters (the seperate html files)? I would like to keep the book as close to its original format as possible. I need to be able to jump to individual chapters or pages in the book because I need to read text on particular pages and make reference to other pages by page number.
Thanks,

The Mobi Reader is not likely powerful enough to control the task. It is mainly for drag and drop conversion. Download the MobiCreator product professional version which is a free download and use it to make your conversions. mobi format does not permit page by page reference that matches the printed page. You can jump to individual chapters. You may be able to embed the page numbers in the text with manual effort and then you could search for them.
