I've downloaded Calibre so that I can make small adjustments to the e-pub versions of my novels (initially formatted for me by third parties). I'm finding it comparatively easy to use, but having problems with two specific operations:
(1) If I insert a couple of additional paragraphs (for example, lines of dialogue), it's giving double spacing, even although I used exactly the same HTML coding for each line as for the others
(2) Where I want to de-italicise (or italicise) a short section of a paragraph, using the <i>......<i> formula, it's applying that to not only the whole of that paragraph, but (as far as I can see) the whole of the section from that point onwards.
Any tips very, very welcome!
