My First Conversion Attempt

I'm totally new to Calibra, so I don't understand the process well and I'll make plenty of mistakes, but I thought I'd describe my first attempt and ask if this is normal.

I converted a 300+ page book from PDF to ePUB. It took a few minutes, quite understandable. When I reviewed the result I could see I still had a lot of work ahead of me.
  • The original table of contents was still there. Yes, I can delete that, but I was hoping Calibra could use the information I provided and convert it.
  • The original page numbers are still there, even though the page breaks are different/nonexistent.
  • The fonts were changed, including the size and typeface of chapter headings.
  • All page breaks were ignored. I'd prefer that chapters start on a fresh page.
  • Photo captions were separated from the photos, and they look like the text (same font and size) and are mixed in with the text. That sure makes reading difficult.

Is all this normal?
Mike
