Have you considered authoring in something besides context? Say TEI XML or Docbook, or even markdown (if possible)? If markdown is suitable, then you can end up with both epub and context at the end. Or if using TEI or docbook, you can write a map file (something I have been trying to do) and typeset the xml file directly with context. I'm always happier knowing that I can get as many different output types from a single source as possible.
I use ConTeXt, because for my main project I want detailed influence on layout and I want to use a lot of the powerful stuff like indexes, endnotes, footnotes, content, etc.. For a second, much simpler, project I was thinking about producing EPUB. I rather use only one environment (TeX, in this case ConTeXt and the Jove editor and make) and rather not work in multiple environments. So, for me, the start is ConTeXt.
in that case use a lot of structure (like \startchapter instead of \chapter and \startitem instead of \item) and use the xml export as it can be converted to html easily Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
