Since I have ABBYY Fine Reader, I run the PDF through it, and then save it as ePUB or DOCX. The problem with conversion from PDF, sometimes the double letters got lost. Like the word WALLFLOWER. Sometimes it will come out as WAL FLOWER. The other L is missing. I've dealt a lot of PDF conversions, thru calibre and epub, but I found out that using ABBYY to "ocr" the PDF is much easier. Very minimal cleanup needed or nothing at all.

I always convert my files into mobi so I use Mobipocket creator. It converts pdf/html/word/txt into mobi files.

Hi all!

This page seems to do the job but I am not sure how well: http://www.mobi-to-pdf.com/

Good luck!

Just want to say thanks to Moondrop...PDFtoEPUB is still free under the promotion and I got a copy. Thanks!

I went DNAML to check out the recommendation, and PDFtoEPUB is free right now too. They apparently are giving away 20,000 copies, so no idea how long it will be available.

many thanks for the link.

Run the stock .PDF file through PDFtoEPUB - to remove all the "Junk" headers and footers.

Open the resulting EPUB in Sigil - to correct all the rest of the problems.

Run the edited EPUB from Sigil through Calibre - to convert to MOBI (or whatever your preferred format happens to be).

Note: All these programs are free!

If you are like me and don't like to use Calibre, follow the first two steps and then use the Online converter (http://www.online-convert.com/) to convert from epub to Mobi

This is great advice!

The pdftoepub website now shows nothing more than a domain held by (registrar) placeholder.

Yes, unfortunately the 2012 post is no longer valid.
