InDesign does a usable conversion to ePub, but a pass through Sigil and some CSS tweaks are desirable to get a more usable end product. I agree with AnemicOak.

Supposedly there was going to be a point release for CS4 to make things better, but that was a while ago so I wonder if it got pushed back to CS5 or something. What they need to do is make exporting from a publishers prepress files to a high quality ePub seamless. Right now it's easier to use Sigil along with Calibre IMO. - - "He seems a little more optimistic about the efficacy of Adobe’s DRM than I would be, though." I suppose you can't expect anything else in an Adobe article, by Adobe. You can't expect him to say that Adobe's DRM is as ineffectual as everyone elses even if it is.
