Okay, Linux gurus. Latest issue: converting .epub to .docx. I'm making a paperback from my ebook and the standard way of doing it is getting the .docx (remember I'm all Linux and LibreOffice) perfect. Then you export the .docx to a .pdf. Then you upload to Createspace. Well, I don't even have a .docx. And my .odt has been modified in Sigil so that my finished mss. is in .epub.
So I converted the .epub to .docx in Calibre, but in four or five instances (in a 70K document) Calibre added italics. (Always in a small paragraph that already had some italics. Calibre made that small paragraph all italics.) So what I've been doing is hunting down all the italics (in Sigil) and then making sure the italics are the same in the .docx.
Is there a better way of getting a .docx (that preserves the formatting and doesn't add any) from a .epub?
Thanks.
