Ok I bought "The New Atkins for a New You." from the nook.com for my wife's nook. The book contains a number of tables with shading, and throughout the book they give example paragraphs that have a grey background and a back border around them. When these converted to Mobi, I lose almost all of that formatting.

I have also purchased "Dragons of Autumn Twilight" from nook.com and have gone through the same process to decrypt and convert to mobi for my Kindle (wife has a nook. I have a Kindle). This book is really beautifully formatted. Each chapter starts with a very nice drop cap. When I convert to Mobi, I lose the drop cap, and instead get a large letter that sticks ABOVE the first line.

I would like to open a tick for the issue, but I don't want to attach copyrighted books I purchased to the bug report in launchpad.

What is the best way to report this kind of issue to help make Calibre a better product?
