The problem is, I really hate having to load up Vista just to do this, since I haven't been able to find a way to do the conversion in Calibre. (I'm about ready to remove Fusion and Vista from my computer altogether - mobipocket is about the only windows program I use anymore).
Am I missing something, or is Calibre for Mac just not developed enough to handle Word conversions? Is there another program that would do the trick?
Thanks

I've never used this. It's just one of the links I've saved when I come across Kindle software.
eCub - a simple to use EPUB and MobiPocket ebook creator
Quote:
To summarize, this is what eCub does:
* Creates unencrypted EPUB files from text or XHTML files;
* Creates MobiPocket files if you have the mobigen application;
* allows editing of the text or XHTML files with a simple internal editor or designated external editors;
* helps you create a simple cover design image;
* optionally creates title, content and cover pages;
* can be run from the command line as part of a build script;
* can be used in portable mode (data and settings are stored locally);
* can convert your book content to audio files (WAV or MP3).
eCub does not do WYSIWYG or syntax-highlighted editing, and it currently only produces unencrypted EPUB and MobiPocket output. It's likely to be useful for simple projects, such as novels, where using an expensive tool such as Adobe's InDesign is overkill.
We're providing eCub free of charge, on Windows, Linux, Mac, FreeBSD and Solaris, for personal and commercial use. However, eCub is not an open source application.
