And regarding formatting, I always put everything into Calibre and once it's in there, it's generally very easy to fix any real formatting problems...
I prefer not to have part01, part02, etc for filenames. I know I can rename them, but that's just something else to be done when fixing the Kindle eBooks. What I don't get is why is it that a lot of Kindle eBooks use (a rather stupid) 7% text indent?

The thing is with Kindle eBooks, I have to either shift using KindleUnpack or convert and then error check and fix the errors before the fixing of the resulting ePub can begin. So Kindle eBooks have two extra steps when fixing the code. Renaming the files and fixing the errors and then I can get to fixing the code.
