Is there a simple way to convert large books that have been photographed into an ePub format that the iPad will be able to flip through?

I'd like to convert these books without creating text out of them, as the folks that photographed used OCR to try to create ePub / text files from the same source and they didn't turn out well. Unless there's a VERY accurate OCR program that will do a better job than the folks at Archive.org can accomplish?

For now the only way I've been able to read through, is by using GoodReader. I had to take the file and resave them in Preview to make them friendly to the iPad. (Apparently these photograph / scans of the book save in JPEG2000, which the iPad doesn't recognize at this time. Resaving them fixes the issue.)

thanks for any tips or leads
