Calibre works so well, that I now upload the same epub2 to Amazon and Smashwords. I also upload a Calibre created Dual Mobi to Smashwords and an exported from Writer MS doc for the other Smashwords formats.

Footnotes are tricky, especially in ebooks to cover older models. I tell the novel writers to try not to channel early Terry Pratchett. They are obviously unavoidable in certain non-fiction texts.
