from RTF to Epub problems with Calibre 2.44.1 64bit

Hi,
this is my first post so, please, be patient if I pose an already note problem.
I try to convert this rtf file in epub but:
- some words in Greek are not readable,
- the index is changed.
Do you know if exist an rtf template on how to create a layout that Calibre will recognize exatly?
Thank you very much,
best regards,
Gianni

Dont use RTF, instead save your document as docx, you will get much better results.

Many Thanks

Many thanks Kovid,
now it works better!
I'm sorry but I had read somewhere that the RTF format was the best...
I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you for your great program! Please do not stop developing it, when I will get some money I will be happy to support you ...
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Gianni

P.S.
I do not know if I use a bad Calibre setting but when I convert the file I posted, if in the Visualization panel I ask to delete blank lines, I lose the structure of the index.

@gianni_1 - see ==>> What are the best source formats to convert?

The "table of contents' at the top of your book is normal style text that includes blank lines. I suggest you use Word/LibreOffice to create a navigable Table of Contents which calibre will convert to a navigable EPUB ToC (I think ).
