.odt Output Option?
There is an option to use an .odt file as input when adding a book, and Calibre converts from that very well. But there is no option to convert TO an .odt.
I use LibreOffice almost exclusively as my WYSIWYG editor. When I find a book with, say, 700 active styles, a bunch of Word junk, and it looks like a ransom note, I usually convert it to .rtf, open it in LibreOffice, and do a "start over" re-formatting project. It would be cool if Calibre could just convert to open document format...it would save a lot of steps, like stripping tabs, initial spaces, and so on. Any chance of that? |

Convert to docx. Libreoffice imports that just fine.

Never thought of that, but I'll give it a try. Thanks!
