Truthfully, there isn't any quick ways. I've got it down to so much of a routine is why it's so fast for me.
Depending on what I have to do, is how long it takes me.
If I just have to make a contents for the book, it usually takes no more than 10 minutes (Except on Chapter intensive books. For example, the rth book of Harry Potter has 38 chapters, took me 20 min on that alone
). But if I have to do more than the contents, usually I have to take out code and re-code other parts.
Thankfully, what I have to re-code, I've got it saved in a text file so all I have to do is copy and paste if it compares to that certain situation.
The only tips I can give is to tell you HTML/XHTML and any coding in between is your friend
Cheers
P.S. I have found out that some HTML/XHTML doesn't work on the IPad though. Like the Center tags and such do not work, you have to use the calibre tags that are in the document sadely >.<
