Well, if it is a DRM-ed e-book then you can forget it - it would kind of defeat the purpose of DRM

.
For this kind of "work around", I am currently writing an application called "e-book scanner" for my personal use. It's an application where you define a screen region and a click point for next page, and it automatically scans ("print screens") the whole e-book to jpg files. Then I use the ABBYY FineReader to convert it to pdf format. Depending on the font, you can get a 100% correct recognition, and a very good formatting.
Any other solution will be a hard one, if not impossible (depending on the encoder used for encryption)...
