I have to convert a PDF book to XML. Is there a good program to do it? or what tools I need to convert ?

Thanks !!

Do you need some particular species of XML? (E.g., DocBook or XHTML or SVG or ...?)

pdftohtml with the -xml option, maybe?

If you have access to Acrobat Pro it has an export to XML option. Don't know if it's any good or not.

Hi. Yes, there is a tool to do that. It will take a PDF document Its mainly targeted at converting business documents like Invoices & Purchase Orders and other Business documents to XML but it might work for converting a Book to XML too.

Here is a link if you want to see more info:
