File converstion - pdf to epub

shakey_hands · 04-30-2014, 04:35 AM

Hi

When I convert a .pdf to a Epub, I want to have the pages match.
In other words. when converting a 10 page .pdf, i want all the writing on page one of the converted epub doc to be the same as the writing on page one of the pdf. same with page two and so on.

Can this be done some how?

I have good reason for needing this. but perhaps it may get confusing at this stage to try and explain in this forum manner. but i can if needed.

Thanks a bunch

NO - this is not possible in any practical way.

ePub is reflowable format so that it does not really have the concept of a page as a fixed thing. I would suggest that you find a way to simply use the original PDF file.
