I note the OP refers to having a DOC file, that is the pre Word 2007 internal format. Is that what he truly has ?

The 'don't use your word processor as if it were a circa 1930 Remington Portable" rule applies equally to producing a DOC in Word '97 as it does to using Word 2016 and saving as DOCX.

My experience was that converting DOCs was problematic compared to converting DOCX, where I have a choice of tools -- calibre conversion and editor import, Sigil plugins, ePub-Tools etc. Hence the earlier practice of saving as Filtered HTML and bashing that into shape. As I recall most (all) of the mso-blah-blah crap came from inline paragraph styling formatting.
