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.

Curious if anyone here has experience with ebook development using epub
format that you can share, e.g., common mistake, devices compatibility and
accessibility issue.
I am in need to make an ebook using the popular epub format, and my
research shows that it's basically the same as building a website, using
XHTML, CSS, XML etc.
Was reading a web related ebook the other day from iPad's ibook, the book
has tabular layout and images, because I had the font size enlarged, and
this resulted the tabular layout got cut off, which is fine if it can break
the row, and display whatever left on the next page. It doesn't, instead
bottom part of the text in the row got cut off as it reaches footer, so I
set the font size to normal, the table displays more rows but with the same
result with bottom part of the text in the last row of the given page got
cut off. Similar occurs to images too.
It's an ebook from A Book Apart, therefor I assume that with the solid team
behinds it, this is not caused by negligence in layout but something that
can't overcome.
Thanks!
