compatible inputs for Calibre
How can I get a .doc file into Calibre? Is there a converter to change .doc documents to something that Calibre will accept?

Thanks. Actually the original is ODT. I didn't know there was an ePub plugin for ePub. I haven't had much luck in getting plugins; I keep getting errors saying the site in unavailable, but I'll try.

I got Writer2epub.

It errors out about 2/3 of the way through with:

BASIC runtime error
object variable not set.

I have great luck when I'm not having bad luck.

It does put out an W2EODT file, but no epub.
