I think Calibre uses h1 and h2 as the default chapter detection marks, but this is customizable.
There are page breaks in the file already, though, and I'd already created a TOC in the Book Designer file, before converting it to html.

Anyway, when I followed Kovid's advice above, and set profile to "none" in Calibre, it produced an ePub with the formatting (and working TOC) intact. The only thing missing was the cover image, which I'd dragged and dropped on to the first page when originally creating the BD file (any advice on how I can get the image back into the document, or how I can get the cover image to display when I open the ePub, would be greatly appreciated).

As things seem to be working now, I just need to know if I can use the ePub I've created on my PRS-505. The advice that Kovid gave me above seems to say that I can't. Is this right?
