Is Calibre the right application for this? Or should I go directly to a coder to assist?
thanks

Calibre is a primarily an e-book library tool, that can inter-operate with lots of different e-book readers.
You should also consider the Sigil editor, it may be more amenable to doing the sort of things you want to do. Most professional e-book makers use Sigil, its been around a lot longer than the calibre editor.
I use both editors.
