Ah, I was confusing this with BookCreator!

I have BookDesigner, and I find it really problematic. It strikes me as very difficult to "tweak" it correctly, and one point of contention is that it does not generate curly-quotes (I've heard others complain of this). Even when passed the correct html tags for curly-open/close, it uses the non-curly version.

I think I'll be learning some Python if I want to continue down the path I'm on at this point. The TOC issue is imperative.

I notice that the Tags reference doesn't have BOLD text! At least I couldn't get it to work... though I was successful with italalics and sub/super scripting.
