Today I tried to do this, when converting, I get an error message, "Failed to convert book "1 of 2" (title)."

I have saved the error file and have attached it.

I'm running Windows 7 SB1, Calibre 0.8.44.

Thanks,

UnicodeEncodeError: 'decimal' codec can't encode character u'\u201d' in position 10: invalid decimal Unicode string

You have some sort of repetitive occurrence of a (bad) character that appears in most of the HTML files I am not sure if position is the 10th character on line 1
or it is on Line 10 of each file listed , but in either case, there is something bad in the head block of each file
