You will probably need CSS styling.

Maybe you can use one of the popular CSS reset or normalize stylesheets available. I haven't tested, but http://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/ is pretty popular.

Beware, a lot of EPUB rendering engines are crap, and there is not a lot of conformity throughout various products. This seems sad... since it is just XHTML.

Hi,

I ran the following simple document through ConTeXt:

\setupbackend[export=yes,xhtml=yes]

\enableregime[utf-8]
\mainlanguage[en]
\language[en]

\setupexport[
title={A nice book},
author={John Doe},
firstpage={cover.jpg},
]

\starttext
\startitemize
    \item First
    \item Second
    \item Third
\stopitemize

\stoptext

I then ran mtxrun:

mtxrun --script epub --make t.specification

This produced a document with the cover page correctly; however, the items were listed on a single line in the EPUB, instead of on lines by themselves.

I have a couple of questions:
Styling. Is custom styling required to format bullet or numbered lists in the resulting EPUB XHTML document?
Knowledge. Would anyone be willing to share their experiences (and tips) for transforming ConTeXt documents to EPUB?

Examples. Where can I find examples of simple and complex ConTeXt documents being converted to EPUB documents having a similar layout?
Many thanks and kind regards.
