New to Calibre/Ubantu

Hello,
As a relatively new author, doing the self-publishing thing, I have begun using Calibre to convert docx files and book covers into epubs. A challenge to get everything right.

I will appreciate any future help.

When you create your book in Word, so not use highlight and apply the formatting. You have to do everything as a style. If you've not done this, then you'll need to go back into your book and wipe everything and start over by adding styles.
