E-book Conversion Help

E-book Conversion Help
I've noticed that there are some computer techs. here.   I was wondering if someone can direct me to how I can convert my book to almost all E-books and able to sell it myself.  I've looked into it before and it is confusing with all the different types of readers and security codes.  Plus it seems all of them can be hacked.  I don't even understand why PDF's can be water marked and yet easily 'washed', why embed it when it can be erased?   I can have it done, but still I think I have to go through a retailer and they want a large part of the pie.  I haven't tried to run it though one of those free converters because there are around 200 images and a lot of long unfamiliar words that are surly to come out like ooobtttcccsk.  Is there a way to sell downloads myself without it ending up free around the world?  That brings up another problem with the retailer, they have huge complex contracts and give away your book and let people share them AND the contract is open ended, meaning they can change it anytime they want.  Reminds me of my last job wherein I had to sign piles of paperwork that I can't sue them and have to give 30 days notice ect. ect., but they can sue the crap out of me and can me in a heart beat, makes one feel loved.
