Could there be a way to print to EPub? PDF is uniquely bad for mobile readability but EPub solves for that

We already produce ePub and Kindle mobipocket files in our Push to Kindle service. You can try it out here http://fivefilters.org/kindle-it/

1. Enter a URL (we also have browser extensions)

2. Click 'Preview'

3. Select the No Kindle? tab and choose 'EPUB'

I use Mozilla Pocket to do essentially just that. I add articles to Pocket with Firefox Desktop and then read them on my Kobo e-reader. I find it much more pleasant to read long articles a page at a time instead of scrolling.
