To avoid those annoying splits I have been converting the files to htmlz and then extracting the index.html and printing to a pdf using Firefox or xhtml2pdf. Others use Open Office to print from the epub. Let us know if you have a better way.

There's a better way. I convert EPUB to RTF. I open the RTF in Microsoft Word 2007, then click Save As > PDF. It even retains the formatting. No split texts.
