Bug Description

Calibre makes incorrect conversion of attached RTF file to MOBI. After first notation text is swapped. Unfortunately, this is not English book, but you can ensure that book is converted incorrect. I'll try to describe:

Try to convert attached RTF file to MOBI format. In Mobi file you can notice that in the first sentence of paragraphee there is date 1945, but after conversion there will be "Rodney King" instead, and another part of the text from middle of the book.

Calibre version: 0.8.6.2
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

you can try:

Open the RTF file in a text editor, such as Notepad or TextEdit.
Check the file’s encoding settings to ensure that it is set to the correct encoding scheme. The most common encoding schemes for RTF files are “Windows-1252” and “UTF-8”.
If the encoding scheme is not set correctly, you can try changing it to “UTF-8” and saving the file.
After changing the encoding scheme, try converting the RTF file to MOBI format again using Calibre.
