Help to convert a pdf :)

Hello

I am trying to convert <snip> into an epub format so I can read it on my Kobo. The file is pure text with no images so I thought it would be easy. Once converted, the result is bad and sentences are broken in the middle.

I read this post and tried to tweak some settings but I did not manage to get a good result.

Anybody could help ?

Thank you !

Did you try MobiCreator, there is a link in the Read this before Posting PDF Questions sticky. It will create HTML and a prc, try converting the prc to epub. Plan on editing the epub no matter what.

I pointed the editor's website where the book is freely available, where is the problem ?

Contact a board editor and ask for adjudication - they're people with Green Names.
