PDF to..., with Calibre 4.2
PDF conversion to epub or fb2, does not work, independent of the source file or / and the settings used in the conversion.
The funny thing is that opening the PDF with the Caliber viewer, it presents it without problems and in a few seconds.
I attach a PDF and copy of the details of the task, after stopping it after thirty minutes.
With Windows 10

The problem is PDF to anything else can be very problematic. It's not usually worth the hassle and the errors.

Thank you, Kovid and BR.
Your information has encouraged me to start a trial and error list.
And I found the culprit!
In the Search and Replace section, I had: search for "\s" and replace with "normal space" (with the intention of eliminating break-spaces etc).
Until last month it had done his job correctly, but now he leaves the converter hanging.

By loading the latest Calibre.
That is the notation to the fix that will be used in the next build (which has happened by now: 4.3)
