Get the latest version of FineReader, OCR it, proofread it, save it as HTML, import into Sigil. Or, I guess that using the latest version (FineReader 11) you could export it directly as an ePub, but the styles will probably be all over the place.
I would export it as DOC/DOCX, run my custom Word macro to "dumb" the text down to its core components (bolds, italics, etc) and then redo the layout either in InDesign, or apply quick styles in Word and then save as a Filtered HTML and then import into Sigil. Hmmm... There are a few routes and software programs that you can use, but just make sure that you proofread the final product. Proofreading is damn important.
Oh, and one last thing, FineReader will OCR the PDFs as a bunch of images, so the images that it saves as "Pictures" are pretty much screenshots of a screenshot, sort of speaking. You're probably better off exporting the images from Adobe Acrobat or something like that, so that you don't lose quality.
