You can also do the same for tables, when it has mistaken them.

Then Read (recognize) and the output is much better.
Absolutely. I think the issue/problem here is an expectation of going direct to ePUB, and skipping that step. Direct to ePUB shan't keep the images/figures, etc., as we all know (painfully too well). I think that Tex (Texanns002) has a fairly great lengthy post somewhere around here (hell, is it in this very thread?) about how to competently scan. Wherever it is, it's worth reading, both for newbs and even those of us with a few under our belts.
