About PDF to EPUB
Build a reflowable EPUB 3 book from a PDF’s text layer — one chapter per page, offline.
E-readers want reflowable text, not fixed page posters. This packs the PDF text layer into EPUB 3 with XHTML chapters (one chapter per page) and a nav TOC, zipped with fflate.
Columns, absolute positions, and graphics are flattened into paragraphs. It is not a fixed-layout page facsimile. Scanned or image-only PDFs need OCR first so there is text to reflow.
Extract text is enough if you only wanted a .txt. PDF to Word is the editable-office cousin.

Common questions
Will page layout be preserved?
No. EPUB is for reflowable reading. That is the point — and the limit.
Can I read this on Kindle?
Many readers accept EPUB 3; Kindle workflows vary by device and may want conversion. We emit EPUB, not AZW.
Is the PDF uploaded?
No.

Why this one doesn't upload your file
