    What actually changes

    EPUB and DOCX are not the same picture in two wrappers.

    The EPUB's HTML chapters are merged into one Word document, with headings mapped to Word heading styles so the navigation pane and table of contents work.

    Worth knowing first

    An EPUB is many HTML files stitched together by a spine. Merging them into one document means the chapter breaks become ordinary page breaks, and any per-chapter CSS is flattened into whatever the merged styles resolve to.

    Questions

    EPUB to DOCX, answered

    Do the images come across?

    Yes, embedded into the document at their stored resolution, which is often optimised for screen rather than print.

    Will footnotes work?

    Linked endnotes usually survive as text with hyperlinks rather than as Word's own footnote objects.
