Epub to PDF Beginner
Hi All! I'm new to this, and was hoping someone would be able to give me a hand.

I am a novice bookbinder, and I have an epub file of a book I would like to convert to PDF so that I can make a hardcover book for a friend. I was planning on putting the file through and adjusting the font, spacing, etc. by trial and error, but I seem to have bit off more than I can chew.

When I put the EPUB through Calibre, the cover comes through fine, but the rest of the document is all HTML text. I'm completely out of my depth here, and I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand figuring out what I'm doing so wrong.

I have included the job details log as a txt document, I hope that helps.

Convert to RTF, style in a wordprocessor (Word or LO Writer), add header, footer, page numbered index etc. Add QR codes beside each link.
Output to PDF
