Asciidoc generates html (which is the basis of epub) itself, so has
control over it. For PDF it generates docbook and uses existing
toolchains like dblatex or fop, but you didn't specify which you are
using and how you are using it.

And come on! How basic is it when reporting problems to provide
information about your usage,
