Is there a proper library which I can use to convert PDF to HTML or some other format that can be converted to HTML easily? I searched similar questions, but to no luck. I want to

Solution 1:

If you're on Linux, try pdftohtml:

sudo apt-get install poppler-utils
pdftohtml -enc UTF-8 -noframes infile.pdf outfile.html

On MacOS (with homebrew) pdftohtml can be installed with:

brew install pdftohtml

The open source ebook converter Calibre can also convert PDF files to HTML and is available on MacOS, Windows and Linux.

Solution 2:

Like I mentioned in the comment above, it is definitely possible to convert pdf to html using the tool Able2Extract7 which can be downloaded from here

I have been using this tool for almost 2 years now and I am pretty happy with it. This tool lets you convert PDF to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher, HTML, OO etc. See screenshot

Imp Note: This tool is not a freeware.

It's not that difficult to convert PDF to HTML. There are many online options, which may, however, expose your data to third parties. Follow these steps, and the output is great.

  1. Open the PDF2HTMLEX page. (You can either follow to next steps which i have mentioned, or follow the directions from the page.)

  2. The package is available for download for Windows from here.

    From the many options available, I recommend downloading "pdf2htmlEX-win32-0.14.6-upx-with-poppler-data.zip (pdf2htmlEx.exe is packed with UPX)"

  3. After downloading and un-zipping conversion is just one cmd command away.

    C:\Users\kjk\Downloads\pdf2htmlEX-win32-0.14.6-upx-with-poppler-data>pdf2htmlEX.exe c:\1\abc.pdf
    

    Final Command:

    pdf2htmlEX.exe c:\1\abc.pdf
    

    (You can of course shorten the name of the folder, however, I kept it the same as you would see after un-zipping the download. I am assuming you can change the directory in cmd to the desired folder or else Google how.)

abc.pdf will be converted to HTML and will be saved as abc.html in the same folder as that of your exe.

Solution 5:

Yeah it definitely is possible. If your on ubuntu linux

apt-get install pdftohtml

then

pdftohtml myFile.pdf myFile.htm -c-noframes

If you want to see what all the flags mean then just type

pdftohtml

If your not on linux, there are a plethora of tools out there that you can use to make this happen.
