Most of the file format conversion routines in MMA3.0 have trouble.  
Wolfram has admitted the bugs exist and plans to fix at least some of 
them in the next release.  I have noticed that the kernel commands like 
Display convert files much better than their counterparts in the 
frontend drop down menus.  Unfortunately, html is not covered by the 
Display command.  You could export the graphics as GIF files, which is 
covered by the Display command and export the text via the clipboard.
