A Word master document is not unlike an ePub OPF file, basically a playlist. Unfortunately Calibre cannot convert Word master documents, be good if it could.

That would be a neat trick! If I recall correctly, back in the day, Lotus WordPro had that functionality. You could create tabs within a document in the same way that you have tabs on a web browser and each tab could be a doc section, chapter, etc. It was a FAR superior word processor to MS Word, and much more intuitive. In Word, you have to plumb the depths to find what you want. WordPro was a thing of beauty and would have handled that task seamlessly.

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll investigate further for the kicks!
