Convert PDF and EPUB without confusing fixed and reflowable formats

PDF describes a fixed page, while EPUB is a packaged web publication with a reading order. This converter therefore provides two PDF-to-EPUB strategies. Reflowable mode extracts the available text layer into adaptable chapters. Fixed-layout mode turns complete pages into image-based EPUB content when visual accuracy matters more than flexible text.

EPUB-to-PDF follows the publication spine, sanitizes packaged chapters and local resources, then renders the reading content into printable visual pages. The result is designed for convenient reading and printing, not as a perfect replacement for professional ebook composition or typesetting.

Privacy, safety and processing

Your files are protected and safe; we never collect or share your data through this tool workspace. Source bytes, extracted text, EPUB resources, previews and generated output are processed in the current browser session. No page-specific upload endpoint, permanent file storage, database or temporary server directory is used.

EPUB content is treated as untrusted. Scripts, forms, frames, active objects, event handlers and remote resources are removed. Local SVG resources are sanitized before use. DRM-protected or encrypted publications are rejected rather than bypassed.

Conversion limitations and troubleshooting

  • Reflowable PDF-to-EPUB depends on the source text layer. Reading order, tables, columns, mathematical notation and footnotes may need manual review.
  • Fixed-layout EPUB and EPUB-to-PDF visual output are image-oriented. Text selection, semantic structure and accessibility can be reduced.
  • Remote resources, scripts, media overlays, video, audio, advanced animations and unsupported CSS are omitted.
  • There is no artificial page, chapter or file-size cap. Large page counts, high render scale, long chapters and image-heavy books can still exceed the memory available to the current browser or device.
  • When processing components do not load, disable overly strict content blocking for this page or retry with a current browser.

Frequently asked questions

What does this PDF to EPUB and EPUB to PDF converter do?

It creates an EPUB publication from selected PDF pages and produces a printable PDF from the ordered reading content inside an EPUB file. Both directions run in the browser.

Can I create a reflowable EPUB from a PDF?

Yes. Reflowable mode extracts available PDF text, groups it into readable blocks and builds XHTML chapters that can adapt to reader font size and screen width.

What is a fixed-layout EPUB?

A fixed-layout EPUB stores each selected PDF page as a page image with a defined viewport. It usually preserves visual appearance better than text extraction but does not create reflowable selectable text.

Which PDF-to-EPUB mode should I choose?

Choose Reflowable text for text-heavy documents with a useful text layer. Choose Fixed layout for brochures, comics, worksheets, complex designs or scanned pages where appearance matters more than flexible text.

Can I select only certain PDF pages?

Yes. Enter all or a range such as 1-5,8,12-15. Duplicate page numbers are removed while the entered order is retained.

Does reflowable conversion preserve the exact PDF layout?

No. PDF is fixed-position content, while reflowable EPUB rearranges text for different screens. Columns, tables, footnotes and unusual reading orders may need editing after conversion.

Does fixed-layout EPUB preserve the PDF appearance?

It preserves the rendered appearance of each page more closely because every selected page becomes an image. Minor color or font-rendering differences can still occur.

Can scanned PDFs become searchable EPUB books?

Not automatically. Scanned pages usually have no text layer. Use fixed-layout mode, or run OCR with a separate tool before creating a reflowable EPUB.

Will PDF images be included in reflowable EPUB output?

The current reflowable mode focuses on the extracted text layer and optional cover. Use fixed-layout mode when page images, diagrams and exact visual placement are essential.

Can I add publication metadata?

Yes. You can set title, author, language, publisher, identifier, subject and description before creating the EPUB.

Can I add a cover image?

Yes. Upload a PNG, JPEG or WebP cover, or use the first selected PDF page as the cover. The image is resized locally when practical.

Does the generated EPUB include navigation?

Yes. The converter creates an EPUB navigation document and an ordered spine. Reflowable chapter labels are inferred from headings when available, otherwise page-based labels are used.

Is the generated file EPUB 3?

Yes. The generated publication uses an EPUB 3 package, navigation document, XHTML content and the required ZIP-based container structure.

Can I choose left-to-right or right-to-left reading?

Yes. Select automatic, left-to-right or right-to-left direction for generated EPUB content and package reading progression.

What image format is used for fixed-layout pages?

You can choose JPEG for smaller books or PNG for lossless page images. JPEG quality and rendering scale are configurable.

Why can a fixed-layout EPUB become large?

Every page is stored as an image. More pages, higher render scale, PNG output and high JPEG quality all increase the file size.

Can EPUB books be converted to PDF?

Yes. The tool reads the EPUB package, follows the spine reading order, sanitizes chapter content and renders it into a new PDF.

Does EPUB to PDF preserve the original reading order?

Yes. It follows the item references in the EPUB spine, which defines the default linear reading order.

Does EPUB to PDF preserve the exact ebook appearance?

It attempts to preserve supported HTML, CSS and images, but EPUB reading systems differ. Scripts, remote resources, media overlays and unsupported CSS are removed or simplified.

Will text remain selectable in the output PDF?

No guarantee is made. The EPUB chapters are rendered visually into PDF pages to preserve broad language and style support, so the resulting page content is image-based.

Can I choose the PDF page size?

Yes. Choose A4, Letter, Legal, A5 or A3, then select portrait, landscape or automatic orientation.

Can I change margins and rendering quality?

Yes. PDF margins, render scale, image quality, page background and optional page numbers are configurable.

What are Original, Reader Serif and Reader Sans themes?

Original keeps sanitized EPUB styles where possible. Reader themes apply a clean controlled layout that can improve consistency for simple novels and articles.

Can I exclude the EPUB cover from the PDF?

Yes. Disable Include detected cover when you do not want the cover document or cover image page included.

Can I choose only some EPUB chapters?

Yes. Use the chapter selection field with all or ranges such as 1-4,7. The numbers refer to the detected spine order shown in the preview.

Are EPUB 2 files supported?

Many well-formed EPUB 2 publications can be read because they use the same container, package, manifest and spine concepts. EPUB 3 output is always generated for PDF conversion.

Are DRM-protected EPUB files supported?

No. Publications containing encrypted reading resources or digital-rights restrictions are rejected. The tool does not remove DRM.

Are password-protected PDFs supported?

No. Encrypted or password-protected PDFs are rejected. Unlock the document with authorization before conversion.

Does the EPUB preview run scripts from the book?

No. Scripts, forms, embedded frames, active objects and event handlers are removed, and the preview runs in a sandbox without script permission.

Are remote images or fonts downloaded from an EPUB?

No. The tool uses packaged local resources. Remote network resources are removed to protect privacy and avoid unreliable output.

How are SVG images handled?

Local SVG images are sanitized before preview or rendering. Scripts, foreign objects, event handlers and external links are removed.

Is there a fixed PDF input size limit?

No artificial file-size limit is imposed. The converter processes the PDF locally and continues as far as the current browser and device memory allow. Very large or image-heavy documents may take longer or fail if the device cannot allocate enough memory.

Is there a fixed EPUB input size or chapter limit?

No artificial file-size, archive-entry, expanded-size or chapter-count limit is imposed. The EPUB is processed locally and progressively. Extremely large books remain subject only to the practical memory and canvas capabilities of the current browser and device.

Are my files uploaded to CorrectionCopy?

No page-specific upload endpoint receives the source file. PDF bytes, EPUB contents, previews and generated outputs remain in the current browser session.

Are temporary server files created?

No. Temporary canvases, decoded resources, ZIP data, blobs and object URLs are created only in browser memory and are released during reset or navigation.

Does it work on phones and tablets?

Yes. The interface is responsive and touch-friendly, although large books and high-quality visual conversion are better suited to devices with more memory.

Which browsers are supported?

Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari releases are expected to support local files, ZIP processing, canvas rendering and downloads. Content blockers can prevent pinned processing components from loading.

Can I cancel a long conversion?

Yes. Press Cancel during page extraction, image rendering, EPUB packaging or PDF generation. The current safe operation finishes and partial output is discarded.

How do I convert another book?

Press Reset to release the source document, parsed archive, preview URLs, canvases and generated output, then choose another file.
