Juhton to code your ebooks

I have been doing dry runs and all that. And I cannot get anything that works well. So I went online looking for software to do this. I know Calibre is free, but it lacks something. So after much searching I came across these guys..

http://www.jutoh.com/download.htm

Now it is from the same guys that put a nice creative writing software I have used in the past. So I decided to give them a try. If it works as advertised, once I finish the Occupy Essay, it should be ready to go to Smashworks very soon. And since I intend to issue my history of labor in ebook as well... and they do handle footnotes, and also will do my own fiction...

So anybody thinking of this, it might work the forty bucks.

In which case, why do you need any special software? Smashwords requires that you upload a Word file.

It will also code into all other formats as well. (Chiefly mobi and the other)
