Short answer: drop the .epub file into the converter above. PDF is already selected on this page. You get a PDF with numbered pages and the book's chapters as bookmarks, free, with no account.
Why turn an EPUB into a PDF
EPUB is the better format for reading on an e-reader, because the text reflows to whatever font size and screen you use. A PDF is better when the page itself matters: printing a book or a few chapters, sending it to someone who has no ebook app, annotating it in a PDF tool, or uploading it somewhere that only accepts PDF.
What changes in the conversion
An EPUB has no fixed pages, so converting it means choosing a page size and laying the text out on it. This converter uses A5 by default, close to a paperback page, with modest margins so the text isn't swamped on a small page. If the PDF is for an e-reader, choose that reader under Settings → Target device before converting and the pages are sized to its screen instead.
The book's table of contents becomes the PDF's bookmarks, so chapters stay one tap away, and every page gets a number. Images and the cover come across. What can't come across is reflow itself: once the text is on a page, changing the font size means zooming, the same as any PDF.
Steps
- Drop your .epub file into the converter above. PDF is already chosen.
- Optionally pick a target device under Settings, or leave it for A5 pages.
- Select Convert to PDF and download the file, usually within seconds.
Frequently asked
Is this free?
Yes, with no account and no page limit. An EPUB is already a finished book, so there's no OCR or recognition to pay for.
Can I convert a book I bought?
Only if it has no DRM. Books sold with copy protection can't be opened by any converter, this one included. DRM-free and public-domain EPUBs convert normally.
Can I go the other way?
Yes. The PDF to EPUB converter turns a PDF into a reflowable EPUB with real chapters, including scanned PDFs.
