@Toxaris: you do great work. If I'm still IN the Word stage of a document, it's your tools/addons I'm using. I'm just not going to go from epub BACK to Word to gain a little quotation-proofing.
I'm responding to this thread strictly to second the comment about Toxaris' work--and to remind all who come along and use it that you ought to donate to support it. I've been a user and tester for this since the beginning, and the sheer amount of work he's put in on this should not be ignored. It works AMAZINGLY well!!
