None of these exports are likely to create content that is 'press ready' (so to speak). For publication, at most it is a starting point, then you need to get in and edit XHTML directly (and probably wish you had done it all in XHTML to begin with...). But they are probably okay if you just want to convert personal documents to a reflowable format so you can read them more easily on a smartphone or ereader.
