Also it is posible to put the html into sigil and go straight to epub. There is a tutorial on this subject here.

It takes very little time to do a conversion (Max 1 hr.)
Actually it takes only five minutes. When you start to teak it, then it is going to be an one hour task.

And the MobiPocketCreator needs to be the Editors version.

I never care to tiedy it up because the only thing funny that is left after conversion are page numbers in case the original PDF had them. Those I am able to ignore when reading.
