You can use the command line if you wish to,but there is a service that Jonathan Chacon wrote. That services lets you convert any txt document into epub format (I don't remember if it also handles pdf format). If you go to the archive you may find one of his post with the link to download the service.
You can also use Pages to convert documents into Epub, being this option most complete and customizable. You are able to give the document a particula structure using the tittles and headings in pages, and then you can export those marks to the epub file which makes reading easier.
