But of course, it produces images, not text, so it still has to be OCRed and converted and whatnot.

Hopefully, a simpler solution will show up at some point in the near future.
I tried CopiStar and it took the screenshots and created a pdf document. I then used Adobe Pro 8 to OCR the document, then exported it to various document types including Word, RTF, and TXT. However, I cannot get an editable document to convert to an ebook.
