pdf2fxl – A PDF to Fixed Layout EPUB Converter
Prerequisites
- Poppler, in particular poppler’s
pdftohtmlbinary - ImageMagick
Poppler and ImageMagick are available for many package managers,
including Cygwin’s. We made sure that the Bash front-end script runs on
the Oracle Java for Windows / Cygwin combo. We have also tried to avoid
utilities/options such as readlink -f that are known to not work on
vanilla Mac OS X / BSD systems. However, we didn’t try it yet on a Mac
and we’d like to hear from you whether it’s woking there.
The other prerequisites are Java 1.7 (or newer) and bash.
