I used the epub3 version and generated new images from the MathML and used those to rebuild the ebook (MathML => SVG => PNG). Looked much better but the ebook size went from 2.1MB to 24MB even with lossless compression applied to the mass of images.
Keep the SVG images as they don't get pixalated or blurry if you zoom in.
