Hi! Thanks for this wonderful plugin. Just wanted to inform everyone of a few things I've encountered when converting epubs to KFX format.

The plugin was recently updated to replace   or just regular space within table data cells with a some text. I've found that you can replace those spaces with a zero-width non-joiner breaking space "&zwnj;" without altering the look of a simple html table.

Also bolded or italicized text of any kind within table data cells will break enhanced typesetting. To create pseudo-bolded text you can create a css style and use the "-webkit-text-stroke: 0.8px;" to make text look bolded. It's a workaroud and seems to work for Kindle PW2 and Voyage. That will allow "enhanced typesetting" to work. Still haven't figured out a workaround for italicized text, sorry.

I was wondering if there's a way we can manually upload a cover for books not available on Amazon. Perhaps in the *.sdr folder somewhere?

That's all for now. Thanks for releasing this great plugin!
