Hi
I know there has been discussion about converting Affinity Publisher Book files to ePub before but I can't find the answers I need.

I use Calibre to convert to various types of ebook files (mobi, epub, etc.).  Usually works fine converting a PDF file. The book I created in Affinity Publisher makes a beautiful PDF for printing, but the PDF doesn't convert properly in Calibre. The text comes out all mixed up! Scene break images are all over the place and the text does not flow correctly. 

Do I need to first change the format of the Affinity file to single pages instead of facing?  Is there anything else I need to do before exporting to PDF in order to make the text appear correctly?  It is a relatively simple file with only simple text except for scene break images. (Do I need to remove those?)

Thank you for any clues.
