I am quite passionate about this and my husband and I are trying to fix it. If you want to be kept in the loop http://www.pixelpublish.com http://www.pixelpublish.com I write popular fiction right into Tex and use pdflatex to typeset my books. But that is also not a solution. As error proof as it is, it is rather cumbersome and not very user friendly. The problem of (most) of today'e ebooks is not that they are typeset in Word, but that they are converted from Word. Contrary to common sense, authors' write (produce text) in Word (WYSIWYG editor -- not text) and then they upload their .doc files into epub creators to produce epubs (text). Yes, we go from text to text via something that isn't text. Bound to be a few glitches. Word has hidden commands that an average user cannot anticipate unless they are surgically careful with their formatting. Most of today's epublishers have written an entire book length instructions on how to do this error free. It's exhausting. In my opinion, writing, as a process, must be revolutionized for this to be fixed.
