About Convert2EPUB
Convert2EPUB turns documents such as PDF, DOCX, RTF, TXT, ODT and HTML into EPUB files that behave like real e-books. Instead of preserving fixed page layouts, it produces reflowable text that follows the font size, margins and typeface of your e-reader, with detected chapters and a working table of contents.
An Auto mode reads the PDF page by page and chooses how to convert it, while Reflowable and Fixed layout modes are available manually. You can target specific devices such as six- or seven-inch e-ink readers, run OCR on scanned pages in several languages, and optionally translate the book into another language. Uploaded files are deleted automatically, and the site mentions a desktop conversion that stays local and a browser extension.
It is a commercial service with a free standard conversion for text PDFs, a credit-based Pro model that charges per page, and free credits when you create an account.
