you can generate a pdf + export in xml from the same source; if you know 
what epub you want (and how it should look like) you can use a 
combination of transformation and css

the main boundary condition is that you tag wisely (and i think this is 
not an issue in your case as you always tag); there is some deduction 
built in with respect to where paragraphs begin and end so often it 
helps to tag paragraphs too (depends on the document)
