Sure enough, I tried manually running this through pdftohtml, and got exactly the same result as the Calibre conversion. So whatever is in this pdf, pdftohtml doesn't like it (I called it a "text layer"...I actually have no clue about what all goes into a pdf!).

Nothing I fat-fingered, anyway, that was my concern.

Thank you!
