converting word doc to epub:Page break shows when it is not present in the word file.
I am using calibre 64bit Version: 7.17.0 and Word 2010.
I am having issues with page breaks at parts of the book where there are no page breaks. Attached is the test word file with the actual title. I have reinstalled word, reinstall calibre, reset the word template. and a load of other things to fix this issue. There are no visable page breaks in the document yet they still show in the converted epub file ! The page break shows before the title "The book of hymns" yet it is not in the word file. I have not changed any configs in word or calibre. Can anyone tell me why this might be happening. TIA |

this is another word doc that shows all the chapters correctly and there are no page breaks, I have tried to use the copy format method, but this did not work.

Imports typically insert Page Breaks before Headings (h1,h2,h3)
Do not use Headings just for STYLE. You can mak a stylesheet class that LOOKS just like a Heading but will not process like 1 (eg semi-auto generated TOC) |

It is only this book that the issue happen too. The other book is fine and the chapter markers works fine. If I remove all headings, there are no issues with the page breaking, but then there are no markers to show it is a start of a chapter. I would like to keep it simple and not have to edit the book once imported into calibre.
Is there another way to mark the titles of the chapter names, so that in the readers they can swipe to see the chapter names to go to without having to scroll through the whole book to find where they got to (should they view another book inbetween) |

oh I posted but the post disappeared.
I would like to keep things simple without having to edit the book after import in to calibre. What other methods could I ues to set the chapters titles? I set these up so it is easier for people to find where they got to. Say if they viewed another book inbetween. |

BTW This really just applies to incorrect usage (not a real heading. Eg a bold sign.) |

The two DOCXs you posted use different Templates hence Styles.
NEW INSTALL TEST1 TEST 1 this work Consequently we end up with different stylesheets and xhtml file break up in the EPUB I convert up to a dozen DOCX to EPUB a week. The only thing I do to the EPUBs is to remove superfluous metadata from the OPF and rename the .XHTML files to match chapter numbers and or names. I never touch the formatting. If I see something wrong I correct the manuscript DOCX and redo the conversion. BR |

Give your THE BOOK OF HYMNS line a different, non-heading style in Word and it will no longer appear as a break in the conversion. You can make the style LOOK like anything you want, just get the "heading" type off it. Word will not show a page break just because of a heading. Page breaks in Word are completely different things than they are in an epub. |
