Example file: spaghetti_sparkle_2_-_galaonline.txt (don't judge me).

ksgiven:零

Opening the .txt file in Word, accepting the default encoding of UTF-8, resaving as .docx, and converting to .epub in calibre preserves the "零" (although by default Word saves the file in Courier New). But trying to use Calibre to convert the .txt file directly to .epub changes the "零" to "雜" (displayed as "éś"). It also strips single line breaks.

Is there any fast way to bulk-convert .txt to .epub that preserves Unicode symbols and line breaks and doesn't force a font?
