Bug Description

I have been using Calibre to convert DOCX files to EPUB. The DOCX files consist many instances where a bunch of 4-5 paras are bordered together. So it looks like a text box. However when converted into EPUB all the 4-5 paras are bordered separately and it appears that each para is in a separate box.

The fix is that I put those paras in a Div and give border to that Div and remove border from those paras (<p> tags). However manually doing this takes a lot of time.

If this thing can be addressed while parsing the file, I think the life will be a lot more easier and quality of books will increase.

I am using Calibre 2.45 and Windows.
