I'd like to convert some university papers from LaTeX into ePub format - without using PDF as intermediate format. You know, PDF is page-oriented, while ePub is more flow-oriented.

While I found several hints, I failed to find a good 'standard' solution.

Could someone please propose the ideal way? One which keeps mathematical formulas render beautiful?

You could generate the TeX output in HTML, and then use the Calibre tools to convert. Basically ePub is about being a container for HTML docs (just like CHM fwiw). As an alternative, consider BookGlutton and/or LyX

Pandoc supports conversion from Latex to e-Pub. The chances are high that it doesn't handle your Latex documents completely, but it should help with the conversion process.

Pandoc has converted Tex formulae to Mathml; I don't know how good that conversion is since I haven't used it.
