Hi there
In response to tee's enquiry about ePUB for ebooks, we've had experience in
converting PDFs with tables and images using Aspose and Calibre, which are
free ebook convertors. The results were good and I think if you use the paid
versions of these applications, you could enhance your tables if necessary.
I hope this is helpful.
