They don't have a professional look to them. They look sloppy and like they were put together in a rush. if you've ever dived into publisher ePubs, you will see that a lot of them are sloppy and unprofessional under the hood. I've been there, done that and fixed it. I take a publisher ePub, strip the DRM, and then fix it to how I like it even if that means just removing the margins and adjusting the indent to what I want. But when I am done, I have a much nicer eBook to read. One that looks good and feels comfortable to read.
