DJVU to ePub best results?

Thanks for your help anyway.

The images include both text and figures. I take it you want the figures. That is pretty much on a separate layer but you would need a special tool to extract them and you might not get this all anyway since simple figures are on the text layer. You can off course display the book and capture the figures with scrren capture.

Like the OP I'm running Linux, but I can probably borrow a windows machine for a while if that's the only way to do this. Any ideas?

Have you downloaded DjVuLibre and run any of the tools included in there?

One of the commandline tools is "ddjvu", which may be helpful for extracting Images from DJVU:

If you need to extract Text, it also has a few other commandline tools (specific instructions are also in the link above). I have no idea if it outputs plaintext or HTML though.

Another last resort you could do is convert DJVU->PDF, and then use whatever PDF tools are available to pull out the Images/Text.
