Please check and share how it works for you.
Thanks for that suggestion.

I did look at dotepub. Using the bookmarklet, I got better results than I've been getting with Pandoc. Unfortunately, it appears that the only way to use dotepub programmatically is to use their API, which requires you to parse the HTML yourself. If I parse the HTML, I've already solved the formatting issues with Pandoc, so dotepub doesn't offer much of an advantage.

If I can figure out how to grab the "Printer Friendly Format" link from sites where images are important and pass that URL to Pandoc, that should solve the problem. This probably requires site-specific configurations or "recipes", which I may play with at some point, but this isn't a huge priority for me at the moment.
