Help & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of converting a PDF to EPUB?
PDFs have fixed page layouts that force you to zoom in and scroll horizontally on small phone screens. EPUB reflows text dynamically to fit your screen with adjustable font sizes.
Will the EPUB work on Apple Books, Kobo, and Google Play Books?
Yes. Our converter builds standard EPUB 3.0 packages fully compatible with Apple Books, Kobo, Google Play Books, and e-reader apps.
Can I convert scanned PDF books to EPUB?
Scanned PDFs consist of static photos of pages. To create a reflowable e-book, the document must contain selectable text or be processed with OCR first.
