I had expected k2pdfopt to have some DJVU capabilities, misunderstanding this excerpt (from the first page presentation)
Sorry--I can see the confusion after looking back at my web page. It's not entirely obvious, but k2pdfopt can only read djvu files, not write them. It can only write PDF files (and, more recently, png or jpeg files). My guess would be that the best solution would be to use one of the tools in the software forum to convert (or print) the ePub to a PDF file (not sure which of them have this capability, but presumably one or more does), and then I'm sure there are tools to convert PDF to djvu.

So why the focus on djvu? Why not just convert the epub to a PDF if you want to be able to add margins to it?
