Yay! I haven't had this problem with earlier versions, and was thinking of going back from 0.7.x - now I'll just wait patiently.

(Hint) Meanwhile I convert to rtf, open in a text editor and do a search&replace for "l " to "ll" which in my eyes makes the text more readable - I prefer the missing spaces, and a few extra l's instead of missing ones for some reason. Then use that text as base for converting to epub. (I also remove the page headers/footers while editing)
