BR - about using Word

Hi BR. I was hopeful about your suggestion to use the Word program to create a 'docx' document that could be converted on Calibre for viewing on Kindle.

The result is very interesting and I've attached three samples, along with the original pdf (which shows the correct design for text). When I use the path you suggested, prose text is generally (not always) properly produced.

But poetry and the two or three lines after each quote are frequently messed up - as you can see in the attached photos of my Kindle

Thank you!.
