The layout of txt converted form PDF is very poor, not to mention the layout of epub converted form PDF.

In addition, Calibre's Chinese support is not good. I developed a CssSTAR software to solve Chinese garbled problems, and you can try it. But because of the calibre's font calling mechanisms defect, it is estimated that won't solve the problem.

It is recommended that:
1. Convert PDF to txt/doc with Calibre or Adobe Reader.
2 .Finishing txt or doc file, delete the non-paragraph line breaks and other problems.
3. Convert txt/doc to EPUB with EpubSTAR.
