You need to output to htmlz - there is no straight html output.

So -- create a directory called Foo, for example. Then convert your pdf into that directory. ebook-convert bb.pdf Foo Look in the Foo directory and you will see the expected html (called index.html, I believe) plus stylesheet plus graphics and a couple of other things, ready to be converted into an epub. At this point you can see the result by feeding it to your favorite browser, Firefox, say: firefox index.html You can also build an epub by running it through sigil directly. Sigil will re-arrange the directory structure and adjust all the links to work OK. sigil index.html (be sure to "save as" bb.epub) |
