Test case:

# demo for https://github.com/wcember/pypub

import pypub

my_first_epub = pypub.Epub('mdash_demo')
my_first_chapter = pypub.create_chapter_from_string(u'<p>Hello\u2014World</p>', title='mdash Chapter')
my_first_epub.add_chapter(my_first_chapter)
my_first_epub.create_epub('OUTPUT_DIRECTORY')
