You're not being picky. If it's a problem, then I need to try a fix it.

May I ask a couple of questions so I know where to direct my attention?

I've never used mobi2mobi, so please excuse any questions that may not make sense.

Was it the .mobi format, the .prc format, or both formats that caused the error?

Was it the first Delver Magic book Sanctum's Breach that had the formatting problems, or all three?

For information's sake, this is how I performed the formatting.

The books were written in MS Word.
I used the Mobipocket Creator Home edition to create the .prc file format directly from the MS Word doc file.
I used the Read in MS Reader command within Word to turn the Word doc into a .lit file.
I then used calibre on the .lit file to convert it into a .mobi file.


If this is not the best process to use for creating formats, I would appreciate any assistance anyone has to offer. Thank you.
