I typeset my book in InDesign, and in Indesign I exported to epub (want to publish KDP/Kindle).

Unfortunately I did it as one large 158 page file.

So as an epub it has no chapter breaks etc but is a huge unformatted mess.

I am now trying to edit it in Calibre (which I am new to).

I need to be able to insert "markers" so I can later designate areas using "set semantics" but cannot find out how to insert the content markers in Calibre.

I also need to know what happens if I try using the split file feature at each chapter etc.

Basically, how can I make it look like a proper Kindle book?

Thank you for your ehlp!
