Hi,
I'm compiling my first ePub to submit to Kindle.

I used the website, word to clean html dot com, which converted curly quotes to html.

Later, in Sigil, I used the Mend & Prettify all HTML files tool, which stripped the HTML for punctuation and quotes.

I was under the impression that HTML should be used for most, if not all such punctuation. And that, if it's not HTML, then such characters would be in ASCII format.

I don't mean to question Sigil's methods but, will my ePub be ok to submit to Kindle like this?

At a glance, the only HTML formatting is for paragraphs, headings... There is no html for any punctuation or 'special' characters (not that there are many special characters).

Apologies for the newbie question. I did search the forum, and read the 'NotJohn Guide...' but if there's a clear answer I couldn't find it.

Sincerely appreciate any clarification here!
