Download as docx export.
You do not have a docx in Google Docs. That's an export option!
Fix & edit in local LO Writer (if you don't have MS Word 2007 or later) as Google Docs is its own format and all exports are a bit broken. Save & edit only as odt. Make sure you use styles and no direct formatting. Choose a small page size like A5. No headers, footers or page numbers.
Finally do an EXTRA "Save As" in docx for Calibre to convert to epub. Edit the odt and repeat EXTRA "Save As" in docx for Calibre to convert to epub.
No edits are needed in Calibre at all, unless you have images (then CSS might need edited for % width or height on large ones). All styles & headings should convert perfectly so epub looks like LO Writer.
Google Docs is a sharing/collaboration tool. It's rubbish compared to a local copy of MS Word or LO Writer. All its styles are a bit broken. All its export options are needing edited afterwards. It doesn't natively do docx at all.
Only edit odt on LO Writer after first docx import (with extra Save As in docx), or in docx on MS Word 2007 and later.
