            Bug ID: 141187
           Summary: LO produces messy HTML in EPUB export
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Printing and PDF export
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: thrusce at gmail.com

Description:
I have tried exporting book-length material to EPUB from Writer and then
editing it with Calibre.

What happens is that every place I have edited my text in LO (and I edit a lot,
because that is what writers do), I find a separate span. For example, if I
change a word in a paragraph after I have written it, that word will be in its
own span. That makes for very messy HTML that is hard to edit afterward.

Thank you for your attention to this. I apologize for an amateur bug report. I
think the fix should be fairly simple.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a document.
2. Go back and change text within the document.
3. Export to EPUB.

Actual Results:
Text within a paragraph, sentence, or even a single word is separated into
multiple spans. A new span is created whenever even a single letter is changed.

Expected Results:
I would like every paragraph to be kept in one single span, as long as no
styles are changed, that is, as long as it would be in its own single span if
it had not been edited.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
