Question PDF to EPUB: Converted document looks nothing like how it's supposed to look. Help

I have a pdf (http://www.scribd.com/doc/60256621/I...ges-Photo-Book) and I would like to convert it to an epub for viewing on my ibooks app on the iPod Touch. But when it finishes converting, it looks so much different from how it looks in the pdf. the text boxes from one page carry on to the next page, and the photos are different sizes in the epub than they are in the original pdf, I want it to look exactly like it looks like in the PDF when I convert it to epub. How do I do convert it to an epub that looks exactly like it does in the original PDF? Thanks for the help.

Not possible, read the links user_none pointed you to for more information.

Bottom line is if you want a document to look exactly like the original pdf file then keep it as a pdf file.
