This is certainly an inexpensive solution. I quickly tried Aiseesoft with a couple of my
favorite benchmark PDFs and it did the scanned book well (just a couple mistakes with the OCR) but not very well with the two-column PDF--it lost the table and a lot of the text was missing or not formatted correctly. This is admittedly a hard PDF, but MS Word (Office 365 version) does a very good job with it--faithfully retaining its layout. MS Word does not save directly to epub, though. You still have to
get it to epub format. See attachments (epubs created by Aiseesoft).
