PDF to EPUB
Turn a PDF's text into chapters and package them as a reflowable EPUB for e-readers, flagging the headers, footers and page numbers you can drop.
🔒 Processed in your browser — never uploaded. The text is extracted and reflows to fit any screen, so the ebook will not reproduce the PDF’s page layout, columns or fonts.

Several at once is fine.
Convert a PDF into a reflowable ebook
Drop in a PDF and this tool pulls out its text, splits it into chapters, and packages everything as a standard EPUB you can open in Apple Books, Google Play Books, Calibre, or most other e-readers. It all runs in your browser — your file is never uploaded to a server.
Text, not an exact copy of the layout
This tool reads the text layer of the PDF and reflows it, so the words resize and rewrap to fit any screen. That means columns, exact fonts, and page-perfect positioning are not preserved. A scanned PDF that is only images of pages has no text to extract and needs OCR first.
Check it before it downloads
Before anything is saved you see the chapters it will make and the exact text each one will contain. Headers, footers and page numbers printed on every paper page are detected and listed so you can drop them — or keep any you want — and words split by a hyphen at the end of a line are put back together. Any page with no readable text is named up front, so you know if a scan slipped into the file.
Several PDFs at once
Drop several PDFs at once and each becomes its own EPUB, with its own headers, footers and chapters found automatically; several books arrive together as one ZIP. A file that is locked, damaged or a scan is named and the rest still convert.
Frequently asked questions
Will the EPUB look exactly like my PDF?
No. This extracts the text and reflows it like a normal ebook, so it resizes to fit any screen but does not reproduce the exact fonts, columns, or page layout of the original PDF.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Not straight away, but drop it in anyway: when no page has any text, the tool offers to read the words on your device (nothing is uploaded) and converts the result. You can also open it in the PDF editor and choose "make the scanned words searchable" — it reads the pages on your device and lays the words back in as invisible text — then convert the result here.
How are chapters decided?
At the document’s own headings — lines set larger than its body text — when it has any. Without headings, or when you pick “Every so many pages”, each chapter holds the number of pages you set. Either way the tool builds a table of contents so your e-reader can navigate between them.
