I was guessing that would be the case. But once in Sigil, I could change them back with a little S&R slight of hand. And actually, LO seems to do a reasonably good job of preserving the intended appearance of the text, even if the use of <i> and <b> are frowned upon by purists, in favor of something more semantic.

Thanks for the info.
