Actually, in at least some cases, they do produce paperbacks with the same lack of quality. I emailed Voyager to complain about errors I'd found in the Temeraire series of books, and they sent me a full set of paperbacks. I had a look in the Victory of Eagles paperback, and found the same errors as in the ebook. See the attached photos for three examples.
