Transfer Word Highlights to Epub
Afternoon All,
I’ve been using Calibre to creat epubs from Word documents and was wondering if it’s possible to save/transfer highlighted passages to appear in the finished epub?
Hope someone can help.

Create a suitable style.
Replace all direct formatting by suitable styles.
Add Docx to Calibre and convert to epub.

Looks like Inline Highlights are not being shown in the current calibre Viewer, but they were shown in earlier versions, and they are shown in the calibre Editor - see attachments.

If KG doesn't respond here by COB I'll lodge a bug report.

I've asked that this be moved to Calibre.Conversion

@TheHillpaul - if you're referring to what you see in the calibre viewer check the viewer preference->color settings — see https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/2120269
