Thank-you easyrider, this is very helpful. I hadn't come across Mobipocket Creator but it works really well. I take the html output from step 1 and manually edit it to match the conventions that I use for all e-books so that I can link in my standard style sheet. Then calibre works it magic and I have an excellent ePub version of the pdf in a much shorter time span than by using my previous methods.
